This guy could have served the prison sentence for idling (tuneyadstvo) in 1961-1965 Russia.

Now, it appears that the order called for the planes to, uh, attack their targets inside Russia. The, uhhh, planes are fully armed with nuclear weapons with an average load of, um, 40 megatons each. Now, the central display of Russia will indicate the position of the planes. The triangles are their primary targets; the squares are their secondary targets. The aircraft will begin penetrating Russian radar cover within, uh, 25 minutes." -- Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) Created by iwdrm.
