Damage control from the Japanese, and sensationalisim by Wolfe B.

Either way, I hope that Nippon doesn't become a wasteland, haven't they had enough nuclear inciddents for any 10 nations??

I really like them cherry blossoms...

This ain't gonna be pretty..
Anyone know the size of this reactor?
How does it compare with Chernobyl ?

This just in....
Nuclear agency officials said Japan was injecting seawater into the core - an indication, Hibbs said, of "how serious the problem is and how the Japanese had to resort to unusual and improvised solutions to cool the reactor core."

Yep- same info I'm getting. Is this 'agency' that Fox is citing a government agency, or private?

yeah we keep getting conflicting reports from Japan let alone all the various news agencies. I think we're safer assuming at this point that it has been a melt down and proceding from there.

It is the most powerful reactor complex on Earth. It drawfs Chernobyl by thousands of times.This is extremely serious for Hawaii and our west coast.
