Bly,
You asked why folks are scared of nuclear energy? Well I do agree it has been safe and clean in terms of accidents in the overall sense. My own concern is 2 fold at a minimum. The byproduct is nuke waste with a half life longer than our nations history and it is controlled by politicians in this country. How about what was/is in Russia, Middle East and... The safety record has been good but **** does happen and again it will all be around for our kids kids kids to determine if we should have done it all much better.
Nuke energy is a great tool but the issues of waste, where and how to store it and who will defend it from the crazies?
