Contracting the gravity of much of the evening's discussions, one humorous exchange left both participants and audience laughing Kennedy illustrating his point that a freeze is verifiable, said, "If our satellites can read the license plates on Soviet automobiles traveling at high speeds they can surely detect Soviet nuclear weapons...
...only one of many roads to a caesarean. In fact, it often seemed to Harrison that all roads led there. If the mother has not delivered within two hours after her cervix has dilated fully, protocol generally calls for a caesarean or forceps-assisted delivery. If highly sensitive monitors detect "fetal distress," a section is of ten done. If the mother has received so much local anesthetic that she cannot push, she may be cut.

But deep-diving nuclear attack submarines and the noiseless Tigerfish are hard to detect until it is too late. Similarly, the Sea Skua and Exocet antiship missiles are almost impossible to evade. A would-be victim can use electronic countermeasures like radar jamming to confuse the attacking missile's guidance system. A ship can also launch clouds of metallic strips from a special mortar...
