I remember watching a documentary on the nuclear bombs in Japan when I was about 7 or 8, and it terrified me so much, that I made a 'safe place' for myself in my wardrobe...doubt it would've given much protection if Sellafield had had a leak, but that's how much of an impact it had! In Cumbria, we sometimes still have to check our sheep for radiation from the Chernobyl fallout!Rachel Pattinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05848131947437970731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-79622818954916142622015-04-18T14:06:50.767-04:002015-04-18T14:06:50.767-04:00In my research, the Three Mile Island one was the ...In my research, the Three Mile Island one was the worst for the U.S.<br /><br />Yikes!
