You're paranoid of anything that's radioactive - even naturally occurring
radioactive ore (stated above).  This is not a sound argument.  Do you
believe that people should be completely isolated from anything
radioactive?  You would then have to remove all of the (naturally
occurring) radioactive ore and gas from the earth and never venture
outdoors into the sunlight.  Sounds pretty silly to me.

Japan has the most reason to fear nuclear power, since it was bombed by two
nuclear weapons.  However, it has warmly embraced nuclear power and is
fully utilizing it.  If they aren't afraid of it, then why should anyone
else be?
