Jim, I just saw a short news clip about the Dresden Germany bombings 70 years ago Feb-13-14 1945. These bombings killed 25,000 people and destroyed 13 square miles of the city. Check out Dresden’s CapQ for Feb13-14 1945.

Thanks Jim, when I looked at the CapQ chart it absolutely blew me away!

Yeah? Well, how do you think the folks in Dresden felt!

Unfortunately, they were also blown away, literally. The horrors of war!

It may be of interest:

I'm including this event in the significantly restructured and expanded 5th Ed of SMA. In preparing it for that, I realized it doesn't belong in the war chapter. it belongs in the chapter on bombs.

First, it doesn't fit the definitions of the two war chapters. It is neither an event marking the beginning or ending of a war (Ch 18), or an attack outside of a formally declared war (Ch 19). It's good to keep the definitions of the data set consistent, of course, so I didn't want to fudge and put it in one or the other of those chapters.

Then I realized it fits the Bombs chapter (Ch 12). Not only that, it also fits the astrological pattern of the bomb events very well.
