- It is the year
2001. John Smith is on trial in a federal court for his attempt to set off
a homemade nuclear device. Although his bomb did not reach critical mass,
radiation from the "fizzle" he produced has already killed several thousand
people in Kansas City. There is some evidence that Smith intended to explode
his bomb as a protest against what he saw as the dismantling of the Social
Security system.
