Save the Nukes!

Why would anyone want to get rid of nuclear weapons? Nukes, and the threat of incineration they imply, have kept us from Global Conflagration from more than sixty years now. The credibility of the nuclear deterrent, of course, depends on the conviction that nukes might actually be used. Detonating a nice, tidy little tactical Bomb on some third-world dictator every now and then would probably do the trick.
