Ok, that's funny.
I used to have a good friend who tootled around in an old VW van with several bumper stickers decorating and or cover rust spots. Among the many anti-violence and anti-war messages was the classic "Visualize World Peace"
One day I told her she should get one that says "Visualize Thermo-nuclear War"
"Why in the world would I want one like that?"
"I just thought maybe if people were visualizing an all out nuclear nightmare they might be more motivated to actively work toward world peace."
