I have read this whole thread and still do not have an understanding of what your fear of nuke plants is all about.
I lived 22 years west of a nuke plant and 5 years east of the same plant. I am still alive!! The only annoyance was the occasional test of the loud sirens announcing a disaster. They were only tests.
Exactly.. And there are many people in America who work INSIDE nuclear plants. Their life expectancy is slightly above the national average.
I live fairly near one too and am not afraid of it. I just don't like something the radioactive fuel and waste issue. It is downplayed just like highway deaths are downplayed.
