The last post had detailed information about surviving an attack - this one is more mass audience friendly and even has illustrations.  The Science Service was a non-profit organization to promote traditional forms of poetry and oral narrative....nah, to promote science.  Despite first impressions of this atomic-fear publication the Science Service appears to have been level-headed and non-political.  It later became the Society for Science and the Public and still exists today.
