---------------------------------------------
Disposing of other countries' unwanted nuclear fuels produced by fast
breeder reactors, is a major industry in the UK.
Understandably, our politicians don't want to tell us where it goes.
Greenpeace was taking an interest a few years ago but have either lost

p.s. Sorry for saying Spam was illegal in Germany,Patrick. I was thinking
of telephone marketing. We also have Article 8 of the Human Rights Act.
Most people don't know that :-)
All the best from - Ian, G0TEZ @ GB7FCR
