Here's hoping that
this
was a really big conventional explosion, not a nuke. (It probably
wasn't
a nuke, since various sniffers would likely have noticed the radioactivity. I think.)
More: Apparently not nuclear according to
this
report. Good.

Sadly, I think it's just a matter of time. N Korea has realized that they get more attention by playing aggressive than by playing nice.
But, thankfully, you can't pretend about this stuff. Either our sensors pick up the radioactivity or they don't.

Something (perversity perhaps), compels me to note this little-known event prior to the first atomic bomb test;
the 100-ton test
.
