Re: Japanese Catastrophies

Yeah it almost looks like a Hollywood movie. It's the kind of feeling I got when I first saw the planes hit on 9/11. It's like your mind just can't process it so you think "it looks so Hollywood but I know it's happening!"

Basically, my mind was blown during Katrina and this is just wow. I was too young to really know anything about 9/11 other then that I was really scared.

Compared to everything else the boat looks like its in fairly good shape, as if it was photoshoped into the picture to sit on top of the house.

That was my first thought..That boats a little too clean considering what happened..

Red is almost instant death, Orange taxes 3 days, yellow takes a week.

A cursory investigation into this has rendered it as utter bull****. People need to seriously stop with this.

Yeah, I was gonna say, that looks a little extreme.

Its extremely extreme. The US West Coast has nothing to fear...even in a complete meltdown with exposure of the contaminated core material.

Yeah i'm pretty sure the worst that would happen to the west coast is like a very very small percentage of increased radiation in the air.

I found out yesterday that one of my friends who used to live here in Winnipeg but now lives in Japan with his girlfriend (who is Japanese) ended up being alright. That was a big relief.

Apparently he was stuck for an entire day in the school that he teaches at while she was stuck in the building she works at for the same amount of time with no electricity, food or anything.

****ing crazy.

I just hope he realizes he needs to move back home. Obviously the earth going bat**** crazy could happen anywhere, but still.

Im gonna go to California and sell Iodine tablets to morons.

I recommend the Special package for $500, it contains a weeks worth of Iodine tablets, a pigeon in a cage, bird food, and the book " How to survive a Nuclear holocaust: for Dummies". When your bird dies, take your iodine, rob your local grocery store for food and water, and get the hell out of dodge.

It's fake. No one uses Rads anymore. It's also a well known troll picture.

Not sure what the guy from France is thinking declaring this a 6, that's madness.

From what I have read from a few different people who are experts on this sort of thing, It is basically impossibly for a really bad accident here. There is no chance for a Chernobyl type explosion, even with the worst case scenario. I have even read that the Nuke plants that are built today are basically meltdown proof, these plants are just built on older technology.

And instant death is like 10,000 rads.

Well, the plant is 40 years old. Significant improvements have been made since then, obviously.

And yes, everything credible I have read concurs with the fact that it is virtually impossible to be like Chernobyl.

Re: Japanese Catastrophies

I just want to thank all of you in here for all the info on nuclear plants. This Girl was doing a presentation on Nuclear power and I decided it was in the interest of the people to drop some actual knowledge of the Japanese situation on them.

Hopefully they can get the situation even more under control so the dramatic headlines with stop.
