But I really have no bloody idea. And whatever it is, it amounts to peanuts.

I simply stand behind nuclear power because its record speaks for itself.

Industry wide, no matter how you massage the numbers to paint nuclear power in the worst possible light, it still ranks comfortably ahead of air travel for safety. Using any fair analysis, it ranks far better still.

The average age of death for an Exon Valdez cleanup worker is 51 years. Chances are that gulf cleanup workers will die younger still. Provided protocols are adhered to, and their exposure IS properly managed, the average age of death for Fukushima cleanup workers, will very likely be indistinguishable from the population average.
