Examining the continuing devastation caused by unexploded cluster bombs (called "bombies") dropped on Laos by the U.S. during the 1964-73 "secret war." The cluster bomb, says long-time activist Fred Bronfman, is "the preeminent symbol of human inhumanity to other humans," and cluster bombs have caused some 12,000 casualties in Laos since the war ended, many of them children or farmers tilling fields. Included: recollections of the bombing by Laotians; efforts to remove unexploded ordnance.
