All true, but irrelevant to the people with cancer in the Ukraine
and elsewhere.  Still, having worked in rnd.pge.com back when it
was a state of the art department, the consensus there was that
small nuclear plants were far safer than the large one's in vogue
before 3 mile island (whose core is now encased in concrete for
thousands of years).

No question nuclear is clean but only if you carefully ignore
the danger of depleted uranium.  But I digress, that's a problem
for future generations (if we're lucky).
