Who are these characters in the airports who hand out pamphlets on
nuclear power?  A colleague of mine at the labs was returning from a
conference in San Francisco recently and was accosted in the Denver
airport.  They tried to sell him some obscene bumper stickers about
Jane Fonda and when he objected, they started shouting things like "Oh,
you just got in from San Francisco.  You must be one of them Faggots!"
and so on...

When he told this story, other people claimed to have had similar
experiences.  My office mate use to have a full beard, and while
walking through an airport, these people tried to get his attention.
He just ignored them and walked by, prompting them to begin calling him
a "hippie" (where have these guys been for the last 15 years!) and
making various rude comments.  I cannot believe the power companies are
behind this negative publicity.

Someone recently mentioned they might be connected with a radical right
organization serving Lyndon LaRouche.

By the way, I don't really want to argue about Nuclear Power.  I am not
anti-nuke.
