Don’t forget to watch “On the Beach” this week!
When you’re hot you’re hot.
And just think there are 3 more reactors that are out of control and cannot be fixed. Not to mention, the hundreds of other reactors around the planet, very much capable of this same scenario. This scripture is now possible. The Bible is always correct. It appears that judgement has arrived.
Revelation 16:3 (KJV) 3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.
I also read some of the comments and this was very interesting.
"think it means it's no longer in the corium 'blob' state but capable of traveling into the earth's mantle in a stream-like state; which is much worse than any previous worst case scenario. There will be no remediation possible; resulting in radiological contamination of underground water-ways (interacting ocean and fresh-water aquifers) within this entire region, for hundreds-of-thousands of years.
Given the amount of energy needed to maintain a liquified condition without significant surface cooling is unusual. Classical thermodynamics has left the building…
The “PEPSI” Syndrome????
Fukashima is bad.
But, closer to home, I’m astounded that only a former employee and none of the current management knew that there was 3.5 pounds of bomb grade uranium laying around in Kodak’s basement.

The atmospheric testing of the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s of Hydrogen bombs was far more problematic for the US mainland. There are significant health hazards in and around the plant, in that the levels of radiation are elevated. Scientists can only guess as to how many additional cancer deaths will be caused by the reactor. It is not going to melt through the earth, nor will it cause a groundwater explosion. I’d worry more about eating seafood caught in that area of the Pacific until they get a handle on exactly how much radiation has been absorbed into the food chain. It’s a mess, and it’s going to take some work to clean it up, but it’s not the major industrial catastrophe that many would want to paint it as. Just like anywhere, there are scientists that want to “study” how bad it is, and “study” mitigation strategies so it is their interests to pump up the numbers and the hysteria.
Believe it or not, radiation is not as bad as many would have you believe and exposure to levels higher than our EPA says is safe, actually reduces your risk of cancer. Like I said, the biggest issue is to move back from the plant, and not eat the seafood until they know how bad the seafood is.
Here’s a few statistics for you:
1) Tuberculosis patients in Canada had numerous chest xrays, and developed lung and breast cancer than the general population.
2) A 1991 study by Johns Hopkins School of public health, in a study of 700,000 shipyard workers where many were exposed to 10 times the levels of radiation as their peers, due to nuclear reactor decommissioning, were had a 25% lower cancer rate than those not exposed.
3)In 1983 apartment buildings were accidentally constructed with massive amounts of Cesium 60, real nasty stuff. After 16 years, the 10,000 people who lived there, only developed 10 cases of cancer, compared to the normal for 10,000 people of 170 cases of cancer. These people were exposed to 5 times what the US government says is safe.
Important.

("When knowledgeable physicists are worried, there’s a problem.")
About 1/3 of the core at Three Mile Island 'liquefied' during the accident. Even if the entire core liquefied in Japan (probably true with the amount of time they went with no cooling), it ain't liquid today. It's now a rock-solid ball of bad stuff that will have to be chiseled out and disposed of just like the Three Mile Island core was.
The China Syndrome was always just a movie.
There's a bit more to the story. The severely damaged #4 reactor building is tettering with an above ground spent fuel pool on the upper floor with 1,500 fuel rods in it. Another large earthquake. it tooples and who knows what will happen? God help us. Life as we know it will... will not be as we know it.
And I quote, "Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth...
