A Melting reactor... I believe we´re screw now. Poor of those resident people over there..

This is why nuclear energy is dangerous.So is coal...
So is oil...
Your point? Or are you just afraid of Nuclear power?

QUOTE(Evo.lve @ Mar 12 2011, 09:08 AM) I'm seriously starting to think the Mayans were onto something with 2012.

I'm seeing a lot of "ooh add up 9/11/01 with 03/10/11 and you get 12/21/12 O_O"... Quite freaky...

9/11/2001 + 3/10/2011 = 12/21/4012.

That's why they have to use "01" and "11".

If you look hard enough with your eyes closed you can make a connection between anything.

You do realize if a major meltdown happens like Chernobyl (which Fukushima is heading towards), the effects can last decades, centuries, or even millennia, there's already radioactive clouds appearing and one US Navy ship has been exposed to a cloud.

Right. And the Gulf Coast is clean *WINK*.
Just don't look under the water.


Also, as for the radiation:QUOTEThe officials added that American helicopters flying missions about 60 miles north of the damaged reactors became coated with particulate radiation that had to be washed off.

There was no indication that any of the military personnel had experienced ill effects from the exposure. (Everyone is exposed to a small amount of natural background radiation.)

QUOTE

On Sunday, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said it expected no “harmful levels of radioactivity” to move on the winds to Hawaii, Alaska or the West Coast from the reactors in Japan, “given the thousands of miles between the two countries.”

FOOLS!!! You can only make an explosion if there's another explosion mixed with it. So letting the news making you think 'It's the end of the worlz' feeling.

I'm pretty sure out of control nuclear energy is much worse than out of control oil or coal.
