:lolwut:

No idea where CNN got that 20 millisevert/hr thing. Japan's safety agency seems to be taking readings 1/2 mile from the plant, away from the wind so they say it has dropped to 250ish microsevert.

trying to take credit?

no more credit than you take for the moon program

:lolwut:

LiveLeak.com - Video of Japan earthquake actual cracks in the ground moving

2nd half of the video is the craziest. I would not want to be on reclaimed land in an earthquake.

Rose colored glasses? The Earth I am standing on quakes all day long and I listen to the fears and worries of the Japanese people straight from their mouths every day. If anyone is blinded, it's you doinks watching the news on the other side of the ocean.

Accepting "bad ****" happening, and feeding off of it are two different things.

Pointless... No bite.

I will take it as a compliment that you care so much about me random internet troll.



Awwww, you can't fool me TF_Flyersfan. I know you still love me. :)

But seriously, all the media scare crap should be embarrassing and insulting to us as intelligent individuals. It's pretty sad that anyone reads headlines like "Possible Chernobyl" or "Radiation found in California" and buys into it.

I think this video illustrates how I feel about everyone panicking...

Do you not know how reactors and/or radioactive fissile materials work?

gg liquefaction. That is crazy to watch the cracks just move back and forth. Makes me wonder how deep they are.

We built this city...

Reactor #2 pressure has gone up. Reactor #2 lost 400mm of containment water since last report. Reactor #3 is pretty much the same as is Reactor #1.

Heard helicopter drops cancelled.

so whats up, more people bout to become zombies or what?

It's been a week, Japan still isn't back to normal and the death toll is now over 6,500 with nearly another 10k missing.

IAEA is leaving people to monitor radiation levels at the plant.

You're wrong. LGBR assured us that everthing would go back to normal in no time. He knows people there! He's the true inside man. Sorry, but the fact that you're there and deal with the Japanese people on a daily basis is voided by the fact that LGBR talked to people there!

alright
LGBR took his lumps and I don't think he's even been on TW for days now

hopefully everyone he knows over there is ok but I say he should be allowed back in the thread with time served

Japan's nuclear safety agency says there has been a level 5 incident at reactors 1, 2 and 3, and a level 3 incident at reactor 4, of Fukushima Daiichi.

An example of a level 5 nuclear event was the March 28, 1979 Three Mile Island in Harrisburg, PA, where design and operation errors lead to partial exposure of nuclear fuel rods and partial meltdown. As a result, radioactive gases were released to the atmosphere.

don't worry, america is there now

erryting a-ok?

"Not sure, waiting for more information"

Here's a little follow up for you: Gee, it looks like they might be "filling it in" after all :bigthumb:

I consider it to be a sarcophagus when they encase the entire reactor in concrete.

image fail :'(

You'll be fine

I think its ironic that the nuclear disaster is a direct result of turning all of the reactors off.

the reactors are already surrounded in concrete and steel...

It would be ironic if you didn't know how nuclear reactors work.

No no, he meant ironic in the Alanis Morissette way.

Local WGN was showing commercials during the Chicago Bulls game saying radiation was detected at O'Hare airport. The first two commercials were real ambiguous. I personally knew right away that it was damn near impossible it was Japan unless it was brought back from Japan on contaminated goods and even then the risk would be minimal, but I know how idiots are.

The last one before the broadcast mentioned it was a false alarm. I wonder if people were *****ing at them for the alarmist headline in a pathetic attempt to get people to watch their news.

I am writing up a email right now to ***** at them. I am so sick of irresponsible journalism.

To be fair, the fact that a song about irony uses examples that aren't ironic makes the song itself ironic.

:lol: YOU GET EM

lol
holy dumb

Yes... how.... convenient.

Yeah, and Alanis claims that she did that on purpose.

Yeah, pull the other one.
