little NightLife's running around I know it scares me. Hmmm......12 kids

Historically, the Germans had a habit of associating the names of objects
with the
sounds they made. In keeping with this tradition when cannons were first
made they
became known as the bum for boom! The first 100- pound bomb was dubbed
"ein lautes Bumm " a loud boom!" After the first atomic bomb was dropped on
Hiroshima, they called the fission device "ein grosses Bumm " or a big loud
boom!"
The next obvious step was the fusion, or H-bomb, which was pronounced
"ein grosses lautes Bumm all ist kaput!"
Paraphrased from "Dust" by Charles Pellegrino
