19. I believe in nuclear power.
I know it is safe. I have worked it.

Everytime something like this happens it is blown way out of proportion. 0.4 gallons of fluid that probably was slightly contaminated spilled into a drainage system and was dilluted by 350 gallons of water before being dumped into the bay where it was further dilluted. Pull a glass of seawater from that bay, put a radiac to it, I doubt you'll get anything above background. Doubly since water acts as a shield to radiation.
