The Gipper on Nuclear Power
“If you were at the race track and the handicappers told you the odds of a certain horse were 100-1, you’d figure his chances of winning were pretty slim. Well, experts have put the odds of a fatal accident occurring at a nuclear power plant at 300 million-1. Put another way, it’s about as likely as you being run over by a horse in your bathtub.”
- Ronald Reagan, 1975
