Hey, Erich: 

Although a nuc power station can explode any day during the next 
25.000 years, it will explode one time only. Opposite, Solms needs to
construct a motor drive who breaks several times without major 
catastrophy...

Besides, you wouldn't want Leica 95, 96 M6 standards, and plastic parts 
rolling into your lap from your next door nuc power station, hmm ?
