How screwed up is that? Talk about your catch 22.

I don’t understand the Japanese—never did; never will.

I just don’t think they have the same respect for human life that many Americans have.

He translates real time Japanese events and brand new Japanese government and media reports into English. Lets us know what is going on very quickly in Japan, which is even more important since the US media is covering up the Japanese Nuclear Catastrophe. Why make fun of that ?

We may now know where the cores ended up. They just had to shutdown the water treatment system because the Cesium filters got too radioactive in just 5 hours. They were supposed to last a month before becoming that hot. Just like we told you well over a month ago, they were slowly cooling the melted reactor mass (corium) with aggressive water injection. Of course back then the reactors were only supposed to have suffered partial meltdowns according to the nuclear experts. Looks like that water is full of radioactive particulates (ie - Corium debri fields.). Very deadly stuff. That contaminated cooling water may be more radioactive then estimated by a factor of about 144.

That’s crazy talk. Everyone knows we should not logically analyze this, but should operate under the maxim “When in fear, when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.”

Hey, all the “experts” on FR told us is was no worse than having a chest x-ray or flying from NY to Miami.

Buncha croutons...

Well you did get them posting about Moon Landings. That means you did good. Anytime they mention UFO’s or Moon Landings, they have run out of ideas.

I can’t resist answering on their behalf.Let me try.

“We had it made when our own media observed the blackout on Fukushima. Then along comes this man who exposes the truth and people all over the world are going to his site and finding out what is going on and thanking him for his valuable service. We’ll have to mock and deride him because that’s the only thing we’ve got left. That and tons of melting fuel rods loose in the environment...”

Covering up the extent of the disaster is getting more difficult, but that does not mean we wont see some more unbelievably ridiculous claims. France just discovered that a shipment of Tea from Japan had twice the legal limit of radioactive Cesium established for the EU. The response from the Oxford PhD holding Japanese governor of Shizuoka was - the French could reduce the radioactivity level by 100 by simply boiling the tea.

Cesium filters got too radioactive in just 5 hours ... Very deadly stuff. That contaminated cooling water may be more radioactive then estimated by a factor of about 144

Your report certainly sounded like things were very bad. And you had a fact -- they shut down after 5 hours because their cesium filter saturated.

However, you then again leaped into rampant speculation. We'll know why the filters filled up in a few days, when the experts finish their analysis. But as in so many other cases of reports from the plant, people just jump to conclusions, insist that whatever they are seeing proves what they speculated about before, and continue to spread unwarranted fear and panic.

So, exactly how hot is this filter problem? Here's from the news story:

NHK, the national broadcaster, said that the filters had accumulated four millisieverts of radioactive material per hour, about as much as was expected to be collected in a month.

4 milliseiverts per hour.

That reading was from the surface of the outer metal vessel housing the filtration unit. This means that the reading off the filter mechanism itself must be much higher. The issue was also how quickly that reading was reached. It reached an established point where replacing the filter was deemed safe, obviously. Also probably was related to how many filters they have manufactured. A US company makes the filter and they have ramped up staff. Why are we not privy to all the details about a US based company that is coming to the aid of Japan ? Is that not a valid news story ?

So what you see as rampant speculation is actually absolutely valid speculation.

Now about the only alternative explanation that I have seen that makes sense is that the metal vessel was being radiated by nearby transportation piping of the contaminated water. In both scenarios however much higher radioactivity levels within that water is a possibility and most likely.
