Somehow you think they aren't saying the same thing. Which I find quite entertaining.

Let's ask it this way. Imagine you have a small 1 gram block of uranium sitting on your counter... slowly decaying away...

... is that an "out of control nuclear reaction"?

Please describe what it is that you imagine is occurring at Fukushima that you're calling an "ongoing, open-air and out-of-control nuclear reactions." ?
