Abstract
From the inception of the debate over fallout shelters it was apparent that the issue would not be resolved on the merits of the facts alone. The content and pattern of the contenden' supporting arguments bespoke a diverse perception of ourselves, the enemy, and the situation. Here is another study that sought to pinpoint these differences, and then use the information to lean1 about the formation of the attitudes upon which decisions on these momentous issues are based.
