In reply to the discussion: Japan’s Fukushima plant faces danger of overheating [View all]wordpix
(18,652 posts)13. geesh, according to you this is not a problem
Easy fixes like "run a hose" and "put a trash can under the leak" might not work for a nuke plant like it does for your pool at home.
Also, I wouldn't believe a thing coming out of TEPCO's piehole, any more than I believed what they said during the earthquake meltdowns. You don't know if it's a 3 mm hole, a 3 in hole or a 3m hole. Just wait a few hrs. or days. I expect the story line to change.

If "It" was "shutdown within seconds of the earthquake," why all the meltdowns?
