Good luck getting some countries to get rid of them.

well DUH! that much is obvious. But the fear remains that one state retains some while others are disposing of them - it's the classic three-way shoot out situation. I believe the best we can do right now is to actively reduce the stockpiles as much as possible. But it's gonna be a slow slow slow process. It might actually take a nuclear strike to get the others to realize the importance of ridding the world of them. My money would've always been on India/Pakistan --- but since i learned that Thatcher was seriously considering nuking Buenos Aires in 1982 over the Falklands...it really could happen anywhere.
