Why I changed my mind about nuclear power [from anti-nuclear to pro-nuclear]

...Because there is not nearly enough highly radioactive water pouring into the Pacific Ocean?

Two facts you may wish to consider:

The water that is pumped in and out of a nuclear cooling facility is isolated from the water that actually touches the radioactive material.

Water itself cannot be contaminated by radiation. That is why it is used to cool nuclear reactors.
