There have been several reports that the North Koreans have told the Brits
that the recent explosion was deliberate, and was part of creating a new
hydroelectric project.


In the reports I have seen the North Koreans don't actually say the
explosion was non-nuclear - perhaps this is the first peaceful use of a
nuke
bang? That would be a turnup for the books.]

First?

Look up Project Plowshare.

Soviets had similar ideas.



And for a treehuggin' project too!
