So we should plan our daily lives for events that happen maybe once per thousand years. And at the same time ignore events like Chernobyl or Funushima that will never happen again... until they do.

Not our daily lives, but our critical infrastructure such as that which provides energy. I am not saying _every_ source should be nuclear. All I am saying is we should plan contingency. And yes, chernobyl and fukushima are at the back of my mind. The risk is very real and even if the probability is low the likelihood increases as we increase the quantity of nuclear reactors.
