I was stationed on a nuclear sub as a reactor operator. When we were underway, I received less radiation than I would have if I was on shore, nowhere near a reactor. The sun and soil generate more radiation than the submarine did. People have been made so irrational about nuclear power, the industry is almost beyond hope. Sad.

The nuclear industry overhyped itself, too. But new reactors can be less expensive and fail-safe. Waste disposal is also over-engineered. Vitrification of waste is sufficient. We can proveably make it less dangerous than a natural deposit of radioactive minerals.

It was a Saudi oil minister who said "The stone age didn't end because they ran out of stones."

So this means you would be happy to be exposed to much higher levels of radiation?
