i don't quite understand the implications here. when i was trying to understand the physics involved at the time, i thought there was some uncertainty about this - it's quite a complex problem to work out exactly what the effects will be (you need to consider issues like whether steam will form, for example - that was important at chernobyl). so it wouldn't surprise me if someone said that there were risks involved...
