[ RadSafe ] Prevention of radiation and chemical injury

[HOWARD.LONG at comcast.net]

Correction appreciated, Doug.
The table is instructive. 
I hope HPs can persuade media and politicians to compare the deaths from accidents 
(largely auto, killing more servicemen during the Korean war than combat),
with the beautiful record of nuclear power plants, for much needed clean electricity.
Has there been a single death from that?
