Out of curiosity, how old are you? This is the sort of nightmare I would expect from someone who was born in time to experience the Cold War-era paranoia about the nuclear holocaust. Do you think it's possible that it was triggered by the recent nuclear deal with Iran?

Early thirties. I'd watched Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome before going to bed that night. The scene where he measures the water vendor's tank with a geiger counter stuck. Also, I'd done quite a lot of reading about nuclear war in the last month.
