The oil industry has had 100 years and actually has failed miserably. Coal
has had at least 200 and as for safety, really needs no comment. Nuclear
power has had an extremely safe history, relative to fossil fuel, with
far fewer deaths, illness, and environmental impact. Think of all the
people who would be healthier or alive today, and the land and
enviromment that would not have been ruined for future generations, if
the USA produced electricity from nuclear power in the same proportion
that, say, France does.
