Kris,
The topic you have read was written in 2000 when Germany's ruling party decided to exit Nuclear power. However then they had thought renewables will be able to take it's place but that has not happened. Also the price of oil then was $20 and they import a lot of gas from Russia. Now the opposition to Nuclear is dwindling now even in Germany. They have started realizing they can not get away from Nuclear that easily. Link- telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/1556830/Germany-to-stay-nuclear-in-Merkel-U-turn.html
Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, is preparing to perform a major U-turn by scrapping plans to abandon nuclear power.
From the link: The move would bring Berlin into line with many of its European neighbours, who are investing heavily in new and existing sources of atomic energy, but puts Mrs Merkel on a collision course with the country's powerful green lobby and her coalition partners.

Mr may be energy might not be that great but we are getting friendly with the biggest super power and are being recognized as a great nation. I would say 100$$ billion is not a great price. Mind it America is a great nation and it would be good to have friends like US in the longer run. Manmohan Singh is a visionary and have full faith in him. What ever he stands for would definitely be great for our nation. In this dangerous world it would be worth while to be friends with US - a nation where they treat Indians with love and respect.

US is not friendly to any developing country, except for its own use. Once upon a time, Saddam & Osama were also great friends of US. What USA did to them?
