By the way
Cnacer rates are signifancantly higher down-wind and down stream of nuclear power plants.
Warmer water emissions have been shown occassionally to distrupt the ecosystem around these plants.
Wastes is a huge problem, one that people came has been handled, but hasn't, the most they've done is made really expensive containers. If nuclear power plants were to replace oil as the main source of power, then you can imagine all the wastes no one would know what to do with.
Without being known, parts all over a plant can wear down or break, and that could do anything from allowing even more radiation to escape to causing a melt-down.
You may say I should let this go but I never did, I simply decided to go back to researching on the subject. You want to know about the dangers of nuclear power then I reccomend Helen Coldecaut.

A man once asked the Buddha, "How does one escape the heat of the summer sun?"
And the Buddha replied, "Why not try crawling into the blazing furnace?"
