[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CND AAA Beef Why do so many people think today's reactors are Chernobyl style ticking time bombs?[/quote] I don't know why people think this. The security precautions have become so complex and intricate (in a good way) that it is next to impossible for a modern reactor these days to explode like Chernobyl did. Did I say it's impossible? No, just close to it. It can happen, but the likelihood of it is so minute, that it might as well be considered negligible.
