Three things:

1. The always enjoyable Ralph Bell's breathless performance alternates, IMO, between being irritating and "TreMENdous".

2. When the writers were at the top of their form, you could learn things from them even when E.G. wasn't talking. I enjoyed hearing Rose's character talk about "P", "S" and "Raleigh" waves during the nuclear test.

3. We've talked before about the conditions the RMT players had to work with, and what a marvelous job they did with sound effects, music, etc. However, listen when Rose's character "James McLain" starts trying to break or hammer the rocks alongside his friend at around the 32:45 mark.

Is that sound effect what I think it is?
