So now you tell me to trust other designs, that they will be "safe"? > That _nothing_ bad will ever happen? > You are being irrational about this Carlos. I do not understand why. Even WITH 3MI, Chernobyl and Fukushima, of which only Chernobyl actually killed people, due to the complete lack of a secondary containment vessel that has been *standard practice* on Western reactors since the *very first* ones that were built, nuclear power is the *safest form of generation there is*. That is the *data* Speculating from a position of complete ignorance of the engineering and radiological risk about what *might* happen belongs in Hollywood, not in a discussion between educated people with a technical background Your arguments are pure metaphysics, God *could* indeed slice open the core of a reactor and create another Chernobyl, but nothing known to science can. Maybe an asteroid strike. But if that happens a nuclear radiation leak would be the least of my concerns, if indeed I was alive to have any. And as we now know, Chernobyl, which was as bad as it is possible to get, ultimately wasn't nearly as bad as it was predicted to be by people paid to tell lies about nuclear power. I live about 30 miles from the UKs largest nuclear power station. Anything big and bad enough to smash its pressure vessel and its containment vessel would be either an act of war or a natural disaster both so great that, as in Fukushima, the reactor loss would be the least of my worries. It is faux logic employed by only ArtStudents™ of the more mendacious sort that say that 'because you cannot prove to me that god does not exist, therefore my belief that he does is not only reasonable, but correct' For which we must merely substitute 'major nuclear power station accident resulting in total exposure of the reactor core to the air and subsequent spread of radiation' plus 'some unspecified thing that makes something even worse than Chernobyl possible' Show me how any power station accident could be *worse* than Chernobyl, and show me how even a Chernobyl style event *could* take place with any Western reactor design and I might give your position some credence. But you cant. And you dont even want to. Ignorance is bliss. -- "If you don’t read the news paper, you are un-informed. If you read the news paper, you are mis-informed." Mark Twain
