The reactor 3 fallout has already been proven a hoax.
If you track it back to where the rumor started it has official links to tepco, but those links are in no way related to a recent fallout.

old an false.


I surmised as such.

I googled around for a bit and found a few less than reputable sources touting it, but figured I would slide the link into the query all the same.

let's have some more panic? better go and read 'inforwars'  :)


Chomping at the bit to get into a source debate, look who's a conspiracy nut argument eh?

Calm your tits dogman. I'm more than happy to disregard fear mongering internet fables.

Hence my catch net of (potentially).


EDIT: Quoted the wrong guy initially.

Still chomping at the bit to argue over nonsense...

pssssst - it was already well disproved before 'piddywiffle' found those news
that's why i directed him to 'infowars', they keep stories like that alive for always another day  :)


Contextually with your first post it appears that this is just another shot at me for posting illegitimate information, to which I've already addressed that I am dismissing it based on a rational and more respectful post by another user that didn't multipost "fear mongering", "infowars" and continual displacement with me.

Forgive me for not quoting everything you say that's repetitive and loaded with pointless argumentative dribble.

not at all
just expressing my surprise that you didn't realise that this was just rubbish especially since there were plenty refutations around before you posted it here
(might have had some sympathy for your problem if you had posted it some time earlier)
but maybe you are better used to gc which is the place to post whatever rubbish you want

Who could have thought of that?

TEPCO told press that the predominant reason behind the sharp increase in radiation at the plant was X-rays coming from storage tanks holding radioactive water that has been leaking from the Fukushima facility.

The water in the tanks contains traces of radioactive strontium along with other substances that react with the materials the tank is composed of, producing X-rays, said officials.


They use a material for the tanks that itself produces x-rays if exposed to radiation.

while i read it rather as being the result of a chemical reaction and not just pure radiation exposure it once again proves the quality of japanese engineering :rolleyes:

Removal is at a break after they managed to damage a power cable for the cooling system
Quote
The cooling system at reactor No. 4 was halted at about 9:45 a.m. local time and it would take around two hours for it to be replaced by a backup system, the company known as Tepco said.
The water is cool enough to remain at a safe temperature until the backup system is operating, it said.

Still they have not published new numbers on how much fuel is removed.

Can you please describe a material that does not produce x-rays when bombarded with beta particles?
