I've heard all about the Korean nuclear test. One story, only one - refers to outside verification by Richter scale. But not by who.
Folks, I lived too many years with Soviet rhetoric to believe anything without outside verification. You remember those days, right? When we heard "yeah we did THIS and we did THAT and we DID DID DID" and you couldn't believe it and when something really DID happen (Chernobyl), it was found out by radiation readings outside the Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc countries a day or so afterward.
"Underground, no leakage" - suuuure. Something like that had to do something readable by someone nearby, oh say - South Korea?
Anyone gotten anything from that source to confirm?
