Yikes. And now that electricity powered automobiles are coming out, again(see the movie "who killed the electric car", seems like nuclear power plants may start poping up. Stop The Planet, I want off. I'de rather live on a planet that has a civilization much more advanced than ours.

The international nuclear event scale (INES) is like a Richter scale for nuclear accidents 1=anomaly - 7=major accident Incident: INES Scale: Three Mile Island - 5 Windscale - 5 Khyshtym - 6 Mayak - 6 Chernobyl - 7 They have not told us about these accidents where radioactivity was released outside of the plant. All you hear about is Chernobyl with its poor containment and TMI. What about... Braidwood, IL (2005) - ? Erwin, TN (2006) - ? Nuclear power is totally 100% safe - right.
