It's been 30 years since a significant accident involving a nuclear plant in the United States. In fact, it was the one and only major accident.
That's a pretty good track record, don't you think? But there are still a lot of people who want to shut down all nuclear power in the U.S., even as more of the world turns to nuclear for energy.

I'd even say it's a stretch to call it a "major accident." No one was killed. It appears that no-one was even injured, though I suppose it's still possible cancer rates will go up past previous levels in the area. Pretty impressive indeed.
