13. It sounds like you're insinuating that past failures are doomed to repeat

The new reactors, Generation IV and most of the SMRs currently under consideration by the NRC for approval, cannot --by the laws of physics-- have a melt down. Cannot. Cannot, unless you change the laws of physics... and I don't think anyone in the ANC is up to that task.

"Perceptions of the technology and the reputation of the industry" are caused by people like you, perhaps well meaning but misled, who believe that nuclear technology (unlike every other technology we have ever invented) does not improve. That's the most simple minded point of view I can imagine. PS, it's also wrong.

ANC, the Anti-Nuclear Cult, are always wrong.
