Today is Stanislav Yevgrafovich Petrov Saves The World Day, one of my personal holidays. On this day in 1983, Lieutenant Colonel Petrov, duty officer at a Soviet nuclear early warning outpost, correctly identified an indication of American missiles incoming as a glitch, thereby preventing a nuclear exchange.
Thank you, Lt. Col Petrov.
