by radioactive isotopes can be so calmly dismissed. Thank you for setting my mind at ease.

However, in 5-10 years when cancer rates spike and dead zones are confirmed in the area, who will shoulder the blame? It WILL be hard to pinpoint, as the future time-frame can absolutely increase the potential causal variables.

But, thank you for the absolution you continue to espouse in favor of the nuclear power industry's shortfalls.
