Yep, left off a couple of zeros. Sadly. most of America gets its
history from Hollywood. Remember Hunt for Red October where the
Russian developed a stealth submarine...all when in real life their
missiles couldn't even get out of their silos as the economy
collapsed? Or how about Oliver Stones' ridiculous JFK. My
girlfriend at the time turn to me and said." I didn't know that
happened!" "That's because it didn't," I said.
The "Chernobyl" TV Serie ... a huge hit and top production
... but littered with false information and reinforced the
anti-nuclear narrative ... Add the "Meltdown - Three mile
island" serie on Netflix ... not denying there was problems there
and gross negligence, but the goal of this serie was mostly to
scare people off Nuke and not document what happened IMHO ...

Many of the modern designs for reactors are not manned by humans
(in particular, the one backed by the Gates Foundation). There
hasn't been an accident that couldn't have been prevented by proper
execution of the emergency / safety plan. Humans are the weak link
so it will be good to see them removed from the nuclear power
equation.
