I live 5 miles from TMI and was conceived a scant few months after the disaster.
Have you seen "The China Syndrome" starring Michael Douglas and Jane Fonda?
It came out a couple weeks before Three Mile Island. Heckuva coincidence. It propelled a lot of ticket sales and will forever be associated with the Three Mile Island crisis.
Its available on Netflix -- instant play. Interesting period piece.
