    Btw, you can also survive cancer, so nuclear really isn't that bad.
    I'm a huge fan of using that huge yellow nuclear fusion plant in the sky for energy...don't try to collect too much of it with your skin though, that way there's more cancer...
    Is he correct in evaluating the show's portrayal of radiation sickness, though?

    Probably, but until he buys a house right next to the Chernobyl reactor to live there with his family, I'm not buying that the whole radiation scare isn't so bad.

    What if he wrote his book in this house? Can the influence of radiation account for his views?

    I think that is a possibility, you never know with quantum science.
    A quantum science once fell on the head of the friend of my cousin's grandmother's barber's dog and he hasn't been the same since.

    You mean "a thick book on quantum science"?

    Due to the nature of the quantum science, we cannot know what exactly it was. It was definitely a Schrödinger's Quantum Science.

    Evidently both. The book and the science.

    If you were observant, some days ago in this thread I claimed I didn't watch it. And my mind does not change with the setting and rising of a few suns. Since it happened so close (both in time and distance) I don't need any show to tell me the story of the tragedy again. I expect a Titanic survivor wouldn't like to watch the movie either. Although, I might be wrong in this. I wouldn't, anyway.
