1. Did nobody think about that nuclear plants can't be switched on and off like nothing?
2. They want them in standby because they fear that north-south energy transport could be overloaded. Well, let's have some blackouts in Bavaria then, maybe they'll start cooperating with the rest of the country then.
3. Nuclear plants can't really substitute what might be missing in gas, if I remember correctly.
4. With all the half-assed things that are happening in Germany, let's just do ONE thing consequently and stop using nuclear power. It will be fine if it isn't already.
