Wither nuclear?

After the near nuclear disaster in Japan, the nuclear power industry has been on the receiving end most of the time. Japan decided to stop all their running nuclear power plants in the country until an audit has been done on their safety. Until today, I believe only one or two is running again. Germany meanwhile decided to do away with it all together. Recently they discovered a crack at a nuclear power plant unit in Korea during a routine maintenance. Then they discovered another crack at another unit in the same plant. Although nothing alarming, it still add up to the worry that countries have about nuclear power. Should we go nuclear or not?
