I feel the current *last* image of today's War Room(s) reminds me of the cramped, claustrophobic War Bunkers of both Churchill (you can visit today!) and Hitler (as recreated in Der Untergang). Both were claustrophobic yet luxurious: Churchill AND Hitler both feared annihilation, yet did so while entertaining lavish dinners. Until the end.
Mr. Wellenstein, if you come to Italy, do not forget to visit the Soratte bunker. It is the closest thing to the Strangelove's room that you can find around (at least by us, I do not know if there are similar places in America that can be visited by tourists). Cheers, Emanuele Mastrangelo
