Hmm, 15:55-14:46 = 1h09min. Is there a typo somewhere?

Re: for Rahvin . . .
While I agree with most of your argument, I think you forgot to talk about the part of energy production that comes from nuclear compared to that coming from coal. If say 5% of energy was produced by nuclear technology and 95% by coal (random example), nuclear energy would still be relatively more dangerous if there were 1000 people dying from it while 15000 died from coal mining/use. In this case, taking the real numbers into account doesn't change the conclusion though but should have been included for completeness sake.
For 2005 , nuclear energy is actually producing 6% of our energy while coal is responsible for 25% of it.

Re: micro nuclear power plants?
Just to be clear, hydrogene cannot be a source of energy, it's just storing energy since hydrogene produced comes from water.

Re: on a differnt note
Yeah, I've never understood why people want to privatize energy production and distribution. The large infrastructures needed for it will always garantee a monopoly/near monopoly for the producer meaning there is no advantages(for consumers) when compared to public ownership and only disadvantages.

Small nitpick: actually Chernobyl is in Ukraine, though at the time of the accident, Ukraine was part of the USSR (I guess it's where the confusion is coming from).
