Nope. I was skimming, and got "I'll cut this" and didn't see a link. I thought I'd be all clever and point out that you didn't have the link that you obviously must have wanted to have, until I realised that you might have meant something *completely different*.
Foo.
In other news, I was shocked to learn, during my year abroad (1993-1994), how many germans remained terrified and deeply opposed to nuclear power. They remembered fearing the radiation cloud, and many believed that they, personally, had been negatively affected due to radiation. I don't know if a clearer understanding of the ecological devastation in the former DDR will have changed their minds; if I had to pick between a minute bump in my odds of dying of cancer in fifty years and miles of destroyed landscape, I'd take the former every day.
