One of them isn’t going to be mentioned here, as I’m sure everyone’s sick of bloggers lamenting his death. And as for Gerald Ford (see what I did there), he’s similarly ubiquitous, but a couple of submissions came up with new angles that I couldn’t resist. At American Presidents Blog, elementaryhistoryteacher reveals how Ford dealt with a crisis over a tree in Korea which almost led to World War III. Also on the theme of North Korea nearly starting World War III, Owen at Frog In A Well explodes a myth of 5,000 years of Korean history. Meanwhile, Dan Harris at China Law Blog asks who is China’s equivalent of Gerald Ford? I won’t ask who the Chinese Richard Nixon is. David Kaiser at History Unfolding gets new insights into Nixon’s diplomacy from recently released records. [...] [...] You might have seen on the grown up news that some former presidents have died.

It's just that thermonuclear <em>sounds</em> so much nicer. I had a feeling that someone would pick me up on that. It’s just that thermonuclear sounds so much nicer.
