Using Chernobyl as an example of the risk for these new plants, or even plain old American plants is an example of misjudgeing relative risks.

More people have been killed by other energy sources even counting Chernobyl. And if you really believe in global warming as a massive human caused threat that, and that we have to make a big cut in CO2 emissions to avoid it than your choices are, nuclear, world wide recession, or live with disasterous global warming.

Cut the crap. Chernobyl was known to be a dangerous design long before the disaster occurred. Building a plant like that in this country had been illegal for many years pervious to it. The Commissars (your buddies) insisted that the US was overstating the risks and being alarmist and THEY KNEW BETTER. Well, they got shown just how much they knew better.
