    he knew exactly which paper he was dealing with. He will have chosen his medium carefully. In 2004 I wrote about this paper: "After the electoral political hopes of 'Young Freedom' on the 'Republicans' were dashed in the 90s, they tried to put established conservatism under pressure from the right by using important terms and formulas within...

  2. Fort St. Vrain, the original HTR didn't work either

    were evacuated... All of this is nothing compared to what Holger Strohm researched in his bestseller "Peacefully into Catastrophe": "The Americans had high hopes and invested a lot of money in the development of high-temperature reactors. With the construction of the demonstration reactor Fort St. Vrain, also with 300 Mwel, gave the Americans a lead in 1973....

    1:0 in South Africa against the nuclear industry. The slow farewell to PBMR. 75% of all PBMR employees were laid off. State subsidies reduced from 700 million euros to 1 million euros. Hope USA? Another THTR barrack(s) in the USA soon? Al Gore and Obama want to further develop HTR in the long term and are ignoring their own experiences in the USA: The bankruptcies with Peach Bottom and...

    www.sagel.info/service/DasvergessenebrauneErbe.pdf Dear readers! I will refrain from pointing out how great it was at the big anti-nuclear demonstration in Berlin in September. The hope of perhaps activating a few more people in Hamm after the mass actions in Gorleben in 2008 through a motivating report in the newsletter was disappointed. Seven people from Hamm, all...

    quickly drank a beer and only came back to vote down their proposals during the vote." (No. 97) Anyone who has experienced this disgusting circus not only loses respect, but also loses hope for improvement within the given political representation systems. Whoever it is -- perhaps even with good intentions -- manages to get into parliament or even into the government...

  7. THTR Circular No. 122 August 2008

    Decades! Top of page Since the Chernobyl disaster in 1986, the nuclear industry worldwide has tended to be on the defensive. When, significantly, a THTR is now being built at the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa and is being celebrated as a milestone for the future in propaganda terms, this is an alarming sign. In 1986 there was no...

    (2) But after seven years of red-green “eco-mania” (Büso) and “pessimism about the future” (Pinkwart), a prophecy from the Minister of Innovation that radiates all over the world promises hope and relief for the tortured souls of the nuclear saviors of humanity: “'High-temperature reactors are the most climate-friendly way to produce hydrogen economically," says...

    was announced. This enormous delay will of course have further implications for South Africa's nuclear export program, which is also being planned. As is well known, the nuclear industry has high hopes for HTR exports to emerging countries. Nuclear expert Steve Thomas smugly asks what caused the at least ten-year delay in the realization of a demonstration power plant...

    He ordered the construction of German HTR technology to the military government there (Ruhr Nachrichten dated February 20, 2). The Siemens subsidiary Interatom, which helped develop the THTR, had hopes for the nuclear business with Indonesia. On July 1987, 09.07.1987, Indonesia's Minister of State for Research and Technology, Professor Habibie, visited the THTR in Hamm-Uentrop and heard from Klaus Knizia...

  11. THTR Circular No. 91 July 04

    Nuclear power in a public power grid near Moscow. Reason enough for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to look to the future with hope at the anniversary conference in Moscow with several hundred scientists. And where this hope is combined with tangible economic interests, the HTR lobby is not far away. Christopher Schrader prays quite uncritically...

    was considered promising* (see “Box on page 29” below). Especially since the Social Democrats in power in North Rhine-Westphalia had relied on this type of reactor. The preference was based on the hope that the Hammer nuclear factory could one day supply process heat for coal gasification - an essential for the coal and industrial state of North Rhine-Westphalia. Leading Social Democrats remember...

  13. List of incidents at THTR - collected by Horst Blume

    With this publication and the total of 36 pages of critical reporting on North Rhine-Westphalia's nuclear policy in 1987 and 1988, I, as a member of the Friends of Nature, hoped to be able to influence a little bit on the largely very nuclear power plant-friendly policy of the SPD state government. The articles not only received friendly attention. - The...

  14. THTR Circular No. 97 February 05

    As they struggled from action to action for a decade, seemingly enduring setbacks with equanimity, those in power only responded with malicious condescension. But now that there is a small glimmer of hope, with perhaps five or six percent of people committing to them, which would be little enough, it wouldn't make sense to use the little power that they have...

    Renaissance. But not the nuclear industry, we want to organize the comeback of the anti-nuclear movement. For too many years, too many people have waited and kept quiet, some out of hope that the federal government would sort things out, others out of resignation over the unfulfilled red-green exit announcements. In surveys, large parts of the population are still in favor of...

    it not. "The police were neither there to thwart nor to investigate crimes; this raid squad took advantage of the opportunity and acted as a punitive executive in the hope of finding something or other that could be used in court," Elisabeth K. complains about this massive break-in Privacy.

    It has been known for a long time that he helped with his nuclear program. And the fact that the Leybold Heraeus company supplied vacuum pumps to the Cape of Good Hope through Gerhard W. (Wisser; THTR newsletter), for example, is something even the otherwise secretive former Pelindaba boss Waldo Stumpf makes no secret of. In the Pelindaba (Zulu for: silence), hidden in the hills outside Pretoria,...
