Jeez, people, can we get a grip on ourselves? Someone from Commodore (Andy Finkel, I think) has already explained to us, a couple of days ago, that the anti-nuclear stuff was there in an attempt to comply with some government regulations, that it is being rewritten to make the intent more clear, and that there was NO political sentiment expressed or implied. Why do the recriminations continue? And do you really mean to tell me that you actually thought the license was meant to push some political agenda? Cripes.
