Tokyo Electric Power Company says it will review all data on radiation leaked from the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, citing errors in a computer program.

The utility says it found errors in the program used to analyze radioactive elements and their levels, after some experts noted that radiation levels of leaked water inside the plant were too high....

Well the 10 million too high number was caused by failure to properly identify the isotope measured.

I thought only a fraction of a fraction of a penny from rounding errors would be transferred into the account.

I always screw up some mundane detail.

And found this:

Fukushima beef cleared of radioactive cesium

Previously that had been found to exceed a limit.

They seem to have measuremnt difficulties over there.

This whole thing is being run by Homer Simpson.

For anyone who has friends or family in Japan or someone who knows anyone there thinking about going to work at that Nuke plant...you can get Radstickers fairly cheap. It is a dosimeter.

The reporter on Foxnews reporting about the blue flash was wearing one.

Read this report last night. The errors just affected the reading for two obscure radioactive elements. Ones they have not been reporting to the media actually. Iodine and Cesium readings were not affected by the computer program.
