Can someone explain what double glazing has to do with nuclear civil defence? --Diderot 15:02, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

Double Glazing muffled the noise of the sirens making them less than effective. This was certainly true of the flood warning sirens as I know from personal experience that although the sirens can be heard in the open in a double glazed dwelling about a mile from the siren they can only be heard at a subliminal "is there a noise?" level.

Does anyone have any details of what would actually be broadcast in the UK during the 80's in the event of nuclear attack?
