And one more thing, are there any rumours about a 3rd atomic bomb to be dropped?
If one reviews the history available concerning WW2 and the use of atomic weapons against Japan, one will discover that the President Truman honestly believed that the use of the bombs was necessary to end the war.

As for a third bomb - all my research into WW2 and the bombs indicates that only two bombs were built.
