We hear about- ‘no more that a dental xray, etc...but would you want to have that dental xray 24 hrs a day, day in and day out? What does it accumulate too? Which KINDS of radiation are escaping?

Time actually works on your side. It is getting too much to fast that does you in.

BTW, Chernobyl evacuated a 19 mile radius the 2nd day.

Which goes to show you how much danger you are not in. Chernobyl was worst case -- the core itself exploded spewing radioactivity into the air and environment.

Go outside and look up on a clear day. That bright thing is a giant nuclear furnace, spewing unimaginable amounts of radiation. You are only protected by a magnetic field and an atmosphere that we regularly send astronauts out of. We've even sent them outside the magnetic field.

Our standards for radiation exposure are ridiculously low -- while that is not a bad thing the media is being wholly unscrupulous in their reporting. They are implying that exceeding those standards by even small amounts is permanently harmful. It isn't, not by a longshot.

Notice that they are not telling you how much radiation exposure anyone is getting relative to truly harmful levels. (Except in the immediate vicinity of the plant.)
