See, you think you are joking, but you wouldn't believe how much energy was spent on those two.

For instance, the initial attempts at the "Nuclear Free Zone" legislation would have prevented smoke detectors, some medical diagnostic equipment, and some of the toys I have in my lab from being allowed. And would have eliminated the possibility of ever installing one of the clever new micro-nuclear power generation facilities. Meanwhile, functioning nuclear reactors and live nuclear weapons transit our county waters almost every day.

(I'm also pretty sure birds from the mainland manage to bring over GMO seeds in their travels, as they don't have to deal with the checkpoint....)
