@Denny:

Just because the grid will go down does not mean there will be nuclear fallout. First off, the cooling generators in nuclear powered plants are powered by.....the nuclear power plant. When cooling capacity is lost, a shutdown occurs and control rods prevent the core from heating up. If all-out Armageddon occurred and the plant was abandoned, the core would be flooded with water and neutron-absorbing rods/chemicals to keep the reactor from ever going critical. Therefore....no mushroom cloud. I used to operate nuclear power plants for the Navy. God bless you for serving, Marine.
