[edit]Maybe the infamous quotation ending with "I am not an atomic playboy" should be mentioned. 83.236.128.138 17:21, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Here is the full quote:
"The bomb will not start a chain-reaction in the water converting it all to gas and letting the ships on all the oceans drop down to the bottom. It will not blow out the bottom of the sea and let all the water run down the hole. It will not destroy gravity. I am not an atomic playboy, as one of my critics labeled me, exploding these bombs to satisfy my personal whim." - As Vice Admiral, Commander Joint Task Force One in Operation Crossroads
But I agree, it should be mentioned - it seems to pop up quite a bit. mickrussom 08:27, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Amemded to include the quote. --James Knevitt (talk) 13:24, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit]Shouldn't there be a redirect from "Spike Blandy"? Personally, I never think of him as "William". Trekphiler 12:10, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
