[quote="Short Hand":92650]Why not drop the bomb outside the city and show the Japenese the power ? They would have surrendered in Days with little loss of life.[/quote:92650]

We've had about 3 debates on this issue relatively recently, and everytime, you bring up that one same point. No matter how many times I counter it with something along the lines of "No one surrendered within the THREE DAYS after the first bomb, what makes you think they would have surrendered if they hadn't even dropped it on a city?" To which you never seem to counter....
