Yeah, because 3-mile island was the biggest nuclear accident of our time. A pity that the US Exclusion Zone won't be safe for human resettlement for at least 50 more years. Oh... wait. 3-mile island's safety / containment features WORKED during the meltdown. The station released minimal radiation levels, considering the reactor MELTED ***** DOWN! Also, it's the SINGLE semi-serious commercial nuclear accident in the US. The government/military reactors -- you know, the ones that AREN'T commercially owned / operated -- have had serious accidents / radiation releases far more often.Not to mention the 3-mile island reactors are obsolete - the newer reactors are 100X safer. I'm all for having some government regulation on business, and I'm all for sticking it to corporate entities that are greedy as ***** - but give credit where it's due. The private sector in the US has actually done a pretty bang-up job operating the US nuclear infrastructure.
