pissed if a nuclear mishap ran me away from my home to possibly never be able to return. Nuclear energy is just too damn dangerous to continue to rely on it for anything except maybe a CT scan or an Xray.
When we were faced with a nuclear power plant being built near here we got out in droves to stop it. Stop it we did.
Its not so much the radiation that worries me when the plant is operating as designed rather its what happens when accidents happen that scares me.
