What? Do you live in the 1950s? Have you heard of nuclear accidents? How many people did wind and solar energy kill so far?

Yep, I'm also afraid of taking airplanes because a handful of them have crashed. But per TWh produced, nuclear is statistically the safest method... just like that it's statistically safer to fly across the country than to drive there, but I'm too scared for that :/
