  • A comment on Conversation: Why no Nobel Peace Prize for Stanislav Petrov ? We (all of us) owe him our very lives.

    Nov 25 2012: You are welcome Chick and Lejan.

    And yes, I do believe Danish Director, Peter Anthony and his international team are not only making a wonderful film that does justice to Stanislav Petrov's actions but, Anthony is also responsible for getting Stanislav to NY so that he could receive the 2006 UN World Citizen Award and has done much to shed light on Stanislav and help to make his life better. If you go to the Kickstarter project, The Man Who Saved the World, you will be able to see a 6 minute trailer of the Narrative Film to be released in 2013. Looks as if 2013 will be Stanislav's year of acknowledgement....30 years after the fact.

    Cheers, Lori

    Nov 25 2012: Update: Stanislav is to receive The Dresden Award on February 17th as stated in an article in The Voice of Russia. The cash award is 25,0000 Euros. So, Chick ....dreams do come true but, still find your question pertinent.

    A comment on Conversation: Why no Nobel Peace Prize for Stanislav Petrov ? We (all of us) owe him our very lives.

    Nov 25 2012: FYI Danish Film Director, Peter Anthony @PAnthonyDK and his team are close to releasing a Narrative Film about Colonel Petrov called, The Man Who Saved the World , after almost 8 years of work. The trailer for the film has been released in association with a Kickstarter Project that was launched on Nov. 22nd. For more information you can go to The Man Who Saved the World (Posterous) Blog and get more details there about Stanislav Petrov and the events that were the impetus for the film. Hope this can help those who have never heard of him. (Stanislav was actually asked to address the UN around 2006 where he was also granted an award. He was also asked to meet with Beloved American Anchorman, Walter Cronkite, a meeting that proved to be one of the last of Cronkite's life. Thanks Chick Morgan for starting this discussion I think it is a very valid question..

  • A comment on Talk: Kamal Meattle: How to grow fresh air

    Mar 21 2009: The plant per person ratios didn't include the money plant. How many are required? At what height? And with what type of maintenance? Very interesting!
