Why do we still talk about "safety" when discussing nuclear even though this has been handled over 30 years ago. Or in other words I haven't seen any arguments presented in this paper "debunked". http://www.phyast.pitt.edu/~blc/book/

In short a few points:

- nuclear power is the safest form of energy production by far

- storing the waste is an easy problem (store on site and reuse later with better technologies), or just make glass cubes of it and dump in the ocean (yes really)!

- the high price of building nuclear power plants is in many ways the result of "nucular paranoia"

- non-military reactors (ie. all "western reactors") can't have the same failure modes as chernobyl had
