R.I.P.

Anybody taking bets of death toll yet? I say 37 thousand..

What would you like to know about it? How has anything changed?

The Earth hasn't stopped shifting since the original event. Nobody knows what will happen next.

I don't need a government official to tell me that I should be on "high-alert". I am carrying my passport and all my essentials on me at all times in case the **** hits the fan. I was told today by my Japanese friends to expect activity for the next month.

Everyone bought out all the convenience stores yesterday and there are very very few people on the streets here. Everyone has shacked up and are trying to conserve electricity.

My school is closed tomorrow. My boss says it is to conserve energy, but I feel that he has many reasons to keep the office closed for now.

Are you not feeling tremors non-stop over in Tokyo?

is she japanese?

Seriously it's like everyone here is actively trying to not understand how nuclear power plants work.

i certainly am

i hate knowing information

Not everyone here has a Full Sail Nuclear Engineering degree

what is this nuclear engineering of which you speak

hang on i don't want to know anything about it

in fact i would appreciate it if you would post misinformation to faciliate my active pursuit of ignorance on the topic

I've decided your right. Going out to spend all my savings on hookers and blow. BRB.

foolggle

The funny thing was when I went to the convenience store to get some items, most of the shelves were full or normal, but the snack section was nearly empty.
Yeah, you need Twix and chewy candy to get through disasters.

they can be used to distract the obese when they come to eat you

The tremors had died down until suddenly there was a big one and my phone rang with a warning from my coworker.
I don’t need to be told to be on high alert, but I want to know if something particularly strange happened, or if they just got readings that indicate a major quake will soon happen in my area.


Yes.


L. Spiro

that means ur gf helped bomb pearl harbor, bro

Great, the advancement of nuclear power is going to be set back decades.

no, it'll just get more expensive

Holy **** this is the most intense video I've seen yet:

I wonder what happened to those poor souls driving around in the video.

I really feel bad for Japan right now. On the bright side it could've been much worse considering. Who knows, maybe this will help boost their economy and create jobs in the long run. If there's any country that can pull though it's Japan.

Perhaps I am naive, but I am entirely convinced that the nuclear warnings are a bunch of crap.

I am 200 miles away (262 km) from the plant and I am not even slightly afraid. I think it is enough distance and nothing will really happen. The media sensationalizes so much that I just can't buy into it.

After once witnessing a Japanese man on some kind of elevator lift attached to a truck, fixing a power-line in the middle of a roaring typhoon 3 years ago, I have gained a lot of faith in their ability to handle things in crisis situations.

What I am afraid of is getting slammed with another huge quake here in the Tokyo area.

yeah i dont think having a city, nuclear reactors, and multiple large towns destroyed is going to help their economy

No, the people who point to the non-event at Three Mile Island as a reason to not use nuclear power will have another example to scream about.

Good god. Watch those cars near the very end when they cut away. There is a dude that turned around and is trying to drive away... He was just about to get swept away.

Personally i think the anti-nuclear movement have made the probability of a disaster or meltdown increase. Somehow i think plants built now are far safer then ones build in the 70s. But no lets just let those plants get older instead of building safer and more productive ones, cause nuclear power is scary ooOOOooo...

Some one catch me up on this.
Did the nuke plants get ****ed?
Any rad leaks?
IS NIMBY GOING TO RUIN AMERICA AGAIN WITH A NEW GENERATION OF MORANS

1739: More from that unidentified official at Japan's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency on rating the incident at the Fukushima nuclear plant on the IAEA scale of 0-7: "Right now we are considering the accident should be rated four. The rating may be changed in accordance with the development of the condition."


Three Mile Island was a 5. Chernobyl was a 7



The top government spokesman said TEPCO has begun new cooling operations to fill the reactor with sea water and pour in boric acid to prevent an occurrence of criticality, noting it may take several hours to inject water into the reactor.

In addition, it will take about 10 days to fill the container with sea water, he said. There is a great possibility that the reactor will be decommissioned as the injection of sea water containing salt and impure substances will make it difficult to operate it safely again, experts say.

I saw a clip on TV earlier that had the one at the very start of that one.
When the boat comes down the road.
The boat turns, and you can see a guy inside the cabin.

three mile had no consequences besides an insane, misinformed public

chernobyl was horrible

the xmen had a fight at three mile island so it had more effects than u realize

those poor japanese people i hope everything works out ok for them

lgbr is obviously being his usual spaz self, but japan would be better equipped than most to deal with an earthquake / tsunami... i mean they've been preparing for this for the last 100 years.

Yep, there was some definite confusion among the chaos. At 1:30 you can see 1, possibly 2, pedestrians in the lower right near the map of Hokkaido. I'm pretty sure that person is dead now. I don't see how they could have survived unless they were a pro swimmer (even then...).

Probably not.

god damn... this footage really puts into perspective just how puny and insignificant man is compared to mother nature... despite everything we have accomplished, she can *****slap the living **** out of us with what (in relative terms) would be the equivalent of a mousefart for her

Oh god, not the Broken Window fallacy again.

Everything I know about nuclear power plants I learned from watching TV.

the tags... :rofl:

they've still got another 24 hours to get things back to normal for lgbr to be correct. you guys don't know ****. business as usual on monday!

Read the quake had been upgraded to 9.1 and that it caused the earth to shift 4" on its axis.

It also shifted the coast of Japan 8ft...
