WTF those idiots -.-|||Indeed. Also, they kinda missed the diagram showing that if worse comes to pass, whole US West coast will be bathed in "cheese"|||The reactor is of a different kind than the one in Chernobyl. It cannot go that much out of control. For example, in Chernobyl they had a graphit core which is hard to ignite, but once it's burning, it's next to impossible to be extinguished, as long as oxygene reaches it. That led to huge amounts of radioactive meterial being released. Also, the radioactive material went on producing fissures in Chernobyl. In Fukushima, the molten core will cease at that, so "just" the remaining heat will have to be released (but together with lots of radioactive material). It's still a great catastrophe and the worst accident imaginable, in particular in a country with such a high population density.
I heard the Japanese typically regard their country as a kind of holy ground (which is just second hand knowledge of mine, however), so when the most urgent things about the catastrophe are dealt with, they will probably become very, very angry about the gross carelessness of those Japanese who built it and their lies about its safety in spite of the permanent danger of earthquakes.
LorveN is our expert here, he specialized on that kind of nuclear stuff during his studies.|||Also, seems like the supporting structures DID NOT get damaged during the explosion (of chemicals / oils / Hydrogen inside the plant).
Also, Japanese government representative has said the radioactivity levels have begun dropping. (in the vicinity of the plant)
If the cooling fails, the temperature rises, but at the same nuclear reaction stops. Worst case scenario, would result in a radioactive leak and damage the hardware, but no explosion. And if you treat the situation carefully, the leak is very low.

As if you can build a realy safe nuklear plant. It's just not possible.
While this earthquake was one of the strongest recorded in history, the recording of earthquakes only goes back 100 years or so. If that realy REALY big, once-in-10'000-years earthquake hits, guess how many nuklear plants will be strong enugh. My guess is none. Japan is a time bomb.

First, it's only the biggest since the magnitude can be measured in a halfway reliable way. Second, if a power plant has a chance of blowing up from an earthquake once every 10,000 years (considering it as a kind of average regarding the likehood of an earthquake on any place) and we have lets say 500 on our planet, one will blow up each 20 years on average, just by earthquakes. Than we have stupid people, volcanos, stupid people, floods, stupid people, terrorist attacks, stupid people and finally, stupid people.
Anyway, I retract the word "lies" above and replace it with "claims, being made all too lightheartedly".|||Quote:

I said that it was not a 1 in 10'000 years earthquake. There can be much worse quakes, that's what I said
|||I know. I actually meant to support your point of view 
|||In that case I totaly misunderstood you. |||more pics.this is just awe-striking. idk where i saw the video, but it was of a guy walking in the park after the quake had hit and the ground had split open and water was pushing thru the cracks. what was more... freaky, if you will, for me and my friend watching this was that the cracks were moving closer and then farther apart again. since neither of us have really lived in quake-prone area so that was just so crazy to us.

ugh! absolutely disgusting! i have not checked my facebook account yet, but a girl that was with us last night had said she had **** like that in her news feed. really? are some of us STILL pissed about that when it happened so long ago not to mention that they're our ally now. ya know, THAT'S not a big deal or anything nor enough reason to care about the thousands have died. we still have our internet and houses. the hell with Japan, right?
