Subject: Slide Rule Sighting in Dr. Strangelove
I've watched this wonderful "black" comedy perhaps ten times and
never noticed before yesterday that toward the end of the movie Dr.
Strangelove (Peter Sellers) uses a circular slide rule to calculate
how long humans will have to stay underground after an all out
nuclear exchange with the Soviet's. Has anyone else caught this?
