#2 Germany, or at least the German Govt., also allegedly/reportedly wants to close down all of its domestic nuke energy plants by Year 2015 - does this mean the German/Euro-Lefties want Germany to begin using those oil, gas, and coal, etc. natural resources Terra Firma is supposed to be running out of???
