230. How odd. I just read someone who had the same recollection as me.

It's a comment on BradBlog-

Brad, I was a 'youn'un' in Pennsylvania during the Three Mile Island fiasco... although I was in Pittsburgh, nearly 200 miles from TMI, I distinctly remember an 'expert' on one of our local radio talk shows saying that at 200 miles even if the reactor melted down we were probably safe for now.

It was terrifying, and I am sure it would be even more so in an island nation with limited evacuation capacity.
