Funny story. I was in Moscow when Reagan's joke was leaked:
> My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.
Most people understood that he was joking. But still, it was frightening. I mean, Soviet Central Television broadcast the audio, with a translation.
