Phyllis Schlafly lived in Alton IL. That's pretty close to perdition.
If there had been a nuclear war (she co-authored a book called "Strike From Space", a missile gap hysteria piece), she lived just north of a huge primary target: The Wood River Oil Refineries. Chances of survival: less than 5%. Additionally, she would have caught a thousand rads from strikes on Lambert Field and Downtown. Southerly winds would have brought her the radiation from Scott AFB, a MAJCOM HQ. Ground burst, big warhead. All due to be hit by both the Russians and the Chinese.
Her time is over. But we have more nutters because of her.
