The number of casualties from there can be counted on the fingures of one hand.
Do you remember the newspaper reports about the nuclear American warship that exploded? No? That's because it has never happened
I used to be quite "anti nuke, but mainly because of the "thousand year trail" of the so-called" "spent" fuel. However with Thorium as a fuel the efficiency is much higher and the waste iis only dangerous for a few tens of years.l
