There were very sound scientific and economic arguments for the SPD/Green position at the time, sufficient for it to be made law.nilpferdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08818100352162861468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1533372025110910037.post-20843658975911737292009-02-21T21:00:00.000+00:002009-02-21T21:00:00.000+00:00@ nilpferd - re: nuclear power - nor am I, but it'...@ nilpferd - re: nuclear power - nor am I, but it's an interesting point that magicman made about the knee-jerk reaction in certain corners of the green movement.<BR/><BR/>I like the look of the rudimentary Grant McLennan Memorial Spill List.

The sloppy and loose thinking that characterises the green debate (I am in the party) is typified by Nuclear Power- no thanks ! as a slogan, whereas I prefer Bob Marley's 'have no fear for atomic energy".
