Accidents Tarnish Nuclear Dream

Bollène, France - Sylvie Eymard's Provence farmhouse kitchen should be the picture of French rural calm. But the stockpiles of bottled water, disinfectant rinse and disposable paper plates hint at something strange.

For the past two weeks, Eymard, 41, and her children, 13 and seven, have had a phobia of taps.

Even the dog drinks bottled water, and it is left out for the birds.
