Hi,

 The facts are, as of a minute ago, that there has been no containment
vessel breach in any of the reactors. Therefore, there has been no
significant release of radiation. Nobody...nobody.. has received an
exposure that would cause any measurable harm. I don't care what you've
read, seen, or heard.   



I wouldn't exactly call 1.06 Sv/hr 'no significant radiation' .. (this
was measured outside the plant). but your right, the media have been
making some pretty silly statements, but then it's not exactly helped by
the 'lack' of accurate info coming from the Government of Japan either!

Hello John and List,

I know it is difficult when the media, almost to a man, has opted to
sensationalize, rather than calmly release the facts. I haven't seen one
headline that hasn't promoted a panic in it's wording. Then, as I read
the body copy it becomes apparent through the use of qualifiers like,
maybe, possible and might, that what was touted hasn't actually
occurred. The headline doesn't turn out to be just misleading..it's
actually a lie.

I was shocked at Sheppard Smith's opener yesterday on Fox. He all but
said we were going to die. And they sent this hysteric to Japan to
report on something he doesn't know anything about. Also, I didn't know
that our popular Japanese/American cosmologist with the salt and pepper
hair...I forgot his name...but he's on many a metoritic program, is a
blatantly anti-nuke. He gets on the air and calls for all nuke plants to
be shut down. I fell out of my chair. How could a guy with letters after
his name and so immersed in the study and teaching of the cosmos...which
owes it's existence to fission and fusion hold such a position? 

The facts are, as of a minute ago, that there has been no containment
vessel breach in any of the reactors. Therefore, there has been no
significant release of radiation. Nobody...nobody.. has received an
exposure that would cause any measurable harm. I don't care what you've
read, seen, or heard.   

What has happened, is that some fuel rod assemblies have been damaged by
loss of coolant and resulting overtemp. They can melt into each other,
but they can't burn through the vessel, or start a fire, as there is no
graphite in the GE design. The Japanese are faced with a cooling and
containment issue that is exacerbated by the loss of power, pumps,
valves, piping and coolant. But, industrious and versatile as they
are...they will handle it. And they'll do it wearing the correct color
uniform and helmet.   

So, my read in the face of all the sky is falling is that this is as
bad as it going to get and the worse is over. Plant personnel have
reduced temps everywhere and what little ionizing radiation released was
harmless before it got over the fence.

Watch..soon the media is going to realize that tens of thousands of
Japanese are dead by being drowned and squished...and the goddamn power
plant didn't kill any of them. 

Intelligent, thinking human beings with real pride and admiration for
the accomplishments of others would be championing the success of their
brothers and sisters in being able to design and construct a set of
reactors that could survive at the epicenter of one of the strongest
earthquakes in the history of the world and take a direct hit from a 20
meter high tsunami.

Too much to ask for?...Pass the iodine and get the meter out of the
cabinet.

G'Day Count
I've been watching your comments on the situation in Japan due to the
earthquake and tsunami and what possible consequences could alleviate
due to the nuclear reactors that generate power for Japan.  Your
comments calmed me down on the prospects of a catastrophe. 

But currently with information, not from news media but from close
friends, this situation is not bright. I fear for the Japanese. It's
not
good and I fear for the rest of us in this situation on all continents.

Nuclear fusion as it may be a god send, it can also be the ultimate
deterrent. I just hope things improve for those within the vicinity of
these reactors. You cannot and never say they're ultimately safe. I'm
not a nuclear scientist or any way involved in these situations. But
there's a problem here and with your earlier posts, that everything's
fine, I'm a little worried. I do this every day, not with radiation but
with people's lives and I try to be to the point. I do not give them

Lets see now, exploding nuclear power plants and flash fires of spent fuel, 
no, I don't see anything to worry about there. Cesium-137 is actually good 
for you and builds strong bodies 12 different ways. I just had a bowl of it

Dear Count,

Thanks for the information on the situation in Japan. I'm under the weather 
today and at home under the covers with a rotten cold that I can barely see 
straight or type and the light hurts my eyes.


I've always thought of you as an intelligent man and still do, but when you 
mentioned in your post  I was shocked at Sheppard Smith's opener yesterday 
on Fox. I thought why is he watching that station. I still believe you're 
intelligent, but it took me a minute to figure out, who the heck Sheppard 
Smith was, and then it clicked he was on that station with the angry people 
that are always yelling, since I watch CNBC or Bloomberg News or CNN or PBS 
or MSNBC my local stations.


There is such mindless drivel on Faux noise. I'm sure you just caught the 
story while flipping channels to get the latest. I've had friends and a 
relative that worked for Faux and I know that each morning they are given 
Talk Points and told to try to stay on point to try and grind down the 
viewers into believing every bit of yellow journalism they can spew out. 
It's their mission to make every viewer and especially every white person 
hate Obama and want him impeached, just like they did with Clinton and to 
push their right-wing republican viewpoint on their viewers. There's a 
reason that most intelligent people call it the Unfair and Unbalanced 
network and also call it Faux Noise Channel and FUX noise it's a 
worthless cesspool of right-wing conservative propaganda written to rot the 
minds of those that are transfixed by the smell of imbeciles like bill 
O'Really, sean hannity and glen becKKK. There's a reason they call 
themselves The Tea Party, because it sounds nicer than RACIST, HOMOPHOBIC, 
LOW WAGE REPUBLICANS!


I understand you were making a comment towards that Sheppard character, and 
the crap he was spewing out to scare the viewers into running towards their 
bunkers that glen becKKK has told them to build. Here's hoping you find a 
station that has real News, not one that they give talking points on every 
morning and are asked to follow and preach the gospel of ignorance.


Don't everyone get your feathers ruffled just because I don't like that 
station or their beliefs. It's a free country and I'm entitled to my free 
speech. I'm just making a point and thanking the Count for his update.


Thanks again for the update and I always appreciate and look forward to your

Hi John and List,

In my line of work I have to respond to emergency situations on a 
regular basis. I can not tell you how many times I have seen the 
unthinkable happen. Things that one can not imagine. I agree that the 
public needs to know the truth
so that they can prepare for any situation that may arise. It is always 
best to be prepared than to be caught off guard or misinformed. Let's 
all hope for the best outcome with these nuclear reactors.

Watch..soon the media is going to realize that tens of thousands of Japanese

G'Day Count
I've been watching your comments on the situation in Japan due to the
earthquake and tsunami and what possible consequences could alleviate
due to the nuclear reactors that generate power for Japan.  Your
comments calmed me down on the prospects of a catastrophe. 

But currently with information, not from news media but from close
friends, this situation is not bright. I fear for the Japanese. It's not
good and I fear for the rest of us in this situation on all continents.

Nuclear fusion as it may be a god send, it can also be the ultimate
deterrent. I just hope things improve for those within the vicinity of
these reactors. You cannot and never say they're ultimately safe. I'm
not a nuclear scientist or any way involved in these situations. But
there's a problem here and with your earlier posts, that everything's
fine, I'm a little worried. I do this every day, not with radiation but
with people's lives and I try to be to the point. I do not give them
false hope, I give them the truth. I hope what you posted in surmise of
what could possibly happen knowing your intelligence and involvement
with nuclear reactors. 


I hope that you are right. At the moment things are getting a little
slim and the doubts are coming forward.

Thank you in advance. Please don't think that this is in any way to
offend, you in particular, but it's a statement of interest. A quizitive
always asking for answers.

Cheers
John

Dear list,

Hope you are right Count Deiro...
Here in france, top officials at Areva (main worldwide conceptor) and
at the CEA (Atomic Energy Center) are very concerned.

They don't expect a Chernobyl kind of situation but more like 3 Mile Island
or worse...

Let's see...

A US Air Force plane was sent last night with a special cooling
agent. I guess it didn't have enough time...

There are two chances that any reactor built in a developed country will do 
a Chernobyl.


Slim and None.

The liberal media loves to run with this stuff to increase viewership. 
Politicians demagogue everything nuclear to get re-elected. The result is an 
electorate with more unfounded fears than a mob of medival peasants.

Dirk must be ok as he just replied to my email about places to visit
with meteoritesI am supposed to be flying out there next week, but
not sure what will happen now...early days.

No details from him about damage but the Tsunami was devastating along
the coastal regions and is now rushing across the Pacific...buildings
in major cities have survived remarkably well it seems...hope everyone
else in its way will be ok.

Dirk was implying that other earthquakes may yet be triggered however.

 I hope Dirk and others we know in Japan are alright.

are evacuating the facility.  It could be another 3-mile Island or

Hi Count and List,

I pray you are correct Count!  The situation at Fukashima is getting
worse and they are trying to open the valve to release pressure - a

The leaks referred to are releases from the system
into the inside of the containment. Messy and requiring
clean-up, but not leaks into the environment. This is
an ongoing situation, not yet resolved. Best to read
the details.

You can track press coverage story by story here:
http://ansnuclearcafe.org/2011/03/11/media-updates-on-nuclear-power-stations-in-japan/

That site is summarized and mirrored here:

[meteorite-list] 8.9 Quake in Japan, 10 meter Tsunami, Hope Dirk and others are ok

2011-03-10 Thread Brian Cox
Just heard on TV and online that the earthquake in Japan was upgraded to 8.9 
from 8.8 with 10 meter Tsunamis off the coast.


I hope Dirk and others we know in Japan are alright.

All the best.

Brian
