To the editor:
One of the greatest visionaries of all time, Jules Verne, tackled the greatest issue of all time in one of his novels: What to do about the threat of nuclear proliferation? Jules Verne's solution: Let it spread to all nations as a hedge against constant war. For what nation would dare to launch war against another if it meant nuclear retaliation and self destruction? So, the problem was not trying to stuff the nuclear genie back into the bottle but rather how to put the the genie to work in the cause of peace for a change. Thus does the problem become the solution.
