POW

POW

Is that "POW!", like in a Roy Lichtenstein painting, or is that P.O.W. for prisoner of war?

I recently watched "A Town like Alice", broadcast on PBS Masterpiece Theatre. Based on the book by Nevil Shute. He was a very fine writer. I've read Slide Rule, The Chequer Board, and On the Beach. Not A Town Like Alice, though. Maybe one day.
