I was trained in that DOE facility in Idaho. I had to take a bus in from Idaho Falls everyday. Nuclear power is inherently scary. It takes very little energy from a radioactive substance to kill someone... and it has lots of energy.

The ironic thing is we live in a universe filled with radioactivity. Our World protects us from most of it but it still has a little bit that is with us every single day

It's fun to remind anti-nuke types that their blood contains radioactive potassium-40. You can see them get all itchy.

“Nuclear power is inherently scary”

I spent over 40 years working with nuclear power. Never once was I scared of it.

when I occasionally drove through Ida. back in the day, we’d sometimes see long streams of yellow busses.
