After the Trinity atomic test Oppenheimer quoted the Bhagavad Gita

	If the radiance of a thousand suns
	were to burst into the sky,
	that would be like
	the splendour of the Mighty One

but a later line he thought more appropriate -

	I am become death, the shatterer of worlds.

But then he was faced by something which sharpened the mind a little 
more than ENUM.
