"most of eastern Pennsylvania was made permanently uninhabitable by the accident" wow the "science" channel. pretty smart there science channel. that's the problem with science...it kinda has become another religion in some ways. just have faith in the source and say it's true and it will be. what would science do? problem is much like religion science doesn't have all the answers, but people will use it to explain things that really haven't been sufficiently answered yet. How about the early food pyramid? it's science bro.
