The nuclear protestors ammuse me. Most of them have no concept of the reality of the physics of radiation and that the odds of 1) there being and accident AND 2) that accident causing the radioactive material to be dispersed in a dangerous way are astronomically small.

The problem is that the protesters are not motivated by science and probability but rather by politics and the fact that their houses happen to be in the area. Much like religion and politics, probability and politics do not make good bedfellows.
