Published in 1990. Quite a few things have changed in the past 25 years. But interesting nonetheless.

I think everything except this is true:<p>&gt; The village has buried beneath it enough explosive power in nuclear weapons to blow itself to smithereens many times over.<p>1&#x2F;6,000,000th of the worlds nuclear stockpile[1], or approximately 1&#x2F;500th of the explosive yield of an average warhead, will not be enough to cause any serious damage to 6000 acres.<p>1. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;fas.org&#x2F;issues&#x2F;nuclear-weapons&#x2F;status-world-nuclear-forces&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;fas.org&#x2F;issues&#x2F;nuclear-weapons&#x2F;status-world-nuclear-f...</a>

Clearly in this world the job with highest demand would be translators&#x2F;interpreters.
