We could have easily had nuclear. But a stupid twist in history tanked it.
The China Syndrome, a popular movie about a total core meltdown, came out 12 days before the 3-Mile Island reactor let a poof of radioactive steam loose. People, being ignorant panicky animals, predictably freaked out. And that was the end of new power plants.
In Oklahoma we were starting a reactor and a bunch of hippies had a hella protest. The government ended up shutting it down.
