It is really disturbing how huge the fear of a atomic war was back then. It shows how bad the cold war was in these years. Today, our children fear different things like the fact, that we are destroying our environment. Interestingly, it would be quite the same (but sure not really), if the bomb would be dropped.

Interesting is also that many kids predict the future in the year 2000 kind of correctly. For example the ideas about computers are quite correct.
