@kravietz The difference is that one of them will kill the neighbors if it is just slightly mismanaged. The other one just sits there.

One would think that Chernobyl and Fukushima would be enough of an argument at this point.

@tsturm

Each year hundreds of people die worldwide in accidents related to solar and wind power. You don't seem to care about them, do you?

@kravietz I don't want to reiterate decades of pro/con nuclear power discussions. Show me a reactor that won't blow up and a safe & practical way to store the byproducts for 1000s of years and we can talk.

> a reactor that won't blow up

*Any* reactor of the 450 currently operational in the world won't "blow up". You have been watching too many horror movies.

> store the byproducts for 1000s of years

You have been lied to. High waste loses 93% of its activity after only 100 years.
