I agree, the French produce much of their electricity via nuclear power in reliable reactors. Recently, because of ***ashima, there is hysteria against nuclear power. The rules are rather simple concerning locating nuclear reactors -- build them in places where earth quakes aren't common, nor tsunamis. Japanese ignored their own history when they constructed their reactors. There were stone steles round the area stating "Don't build anything permanent below this point." Those steles were placed there to warn of tsunamis. Then, the error was increased by placing the emergency generators on the ground floor (flooded), instead of higher floor.
