  1. Well, what people "hear" tend to have influence over them, even if they don't know anything about it shallow reasons like "saw it in a movie" or read it in the newspaper is "enough" for people to form a opinion

  2. I totally agree, problem is when something does go wrong, the effects stay for generations.

    Personally I've been inside reactor buildings, and have studied the safety and evacuation plans of a number of facilities worldwide, yet none are 100% safe, and its that silent killer, radiation, that everyone is afraid of
