This is some grim stuff.

1. Absolutely.

2. OMG, this is horrible!

We must use another source of energy, as we should NOT allow accident like this never occurred again.

The Soviets pretty much outdid themselves.

4. Yes, electricity is really worth a miniscule risk of all that misery...

:sarcasm:

After all, those windmills and solar panels are just SO unsightly...

Oh, and the waste that's radioactive for thousands of years - I feel SO secure knowing that those drums are protected by a plastic sheet atop some clay liner - right above my aquifer.
