I know I'm from the 50's/60's era when we were all going to die tomorrow in a nuclear holocaust, and yes, it marked me, but I have to tell you, the electronic blue flash, the brightness of it and the fact it was all around this tower....My ex moved up here the week before the TMI meltdown. While there was not direct visual, news reports and all made it almost worse...because it WAS happening.My first job out of college was with GPU Nuclear, the owners of TMI. I've actually visited the facility a number of times.
