A Korea blew something up, apparently.

Apparently, one of the Koreas has tested a nuclear weapon. This is what I heard, at least.

Anyhow, the best coverage I've thus far found is a piece at The Onion, N. Korea Detonates 40 Years Of GDP. Particularly salient are these haunting words:

"This fraction-of-a-second blast is what I, and my parents before me, have given up everything to achieve," said tractor driver Chin Lee-Park, whose machine was cannibalized for bomb derrick parts in 1997.

"It is truly a great day for North Korea," added Lee-Park, who then died due to a combination of malnutrition and tuberculosis.
