Time flies when you're splitting atoms. It's hard to imagine that it has been three decades to the day since the worst nuclear power accident in the United States took place. For ten days the residents of the Mid-State were teetering on the brink of disaster. Luckily the outcome was only a partial meltdown of the TMI-2 reactor core, and far less disastrous as it could have been. By April 9 the worst was over and the residents of the surrounding area could stop walking on egg shells.
