    I myself thought the same thing. And they’re all women. And this isn’t the first time either.

    The comments on this piece at HP are very interesting. One of my favorites points us to the entry in Wikipedia on Bikini Atoll, which begins:

    The Flag of Bikini Atoll, a member of the Marshall Islands, is a flag closely resembling the flag of the United States and was adopted in 1987 to remind the people and the government of United States that the islanders believe that a great debt is still owed to the people of Bikini because in 1954 the United States government detonated a thermonuclear bomb on the island as part of the Bravo test. (My stress.)
