In reply to the discussion: Radiation from Fukushima Will Be 10 Times Bigger than All Radiation from Nuclear Tests Combined [View all]darkangel218

When ( and I pray to whatever god(s) is out there, if any that it doesn't happen ) a nuclear accident will happen close to your home, you will see the horror, the pain and deaths without the help of "statistics".
People are still dying because of Chernobyl aftermath. And so will those close to Fukushima.
What do you plan on doing with the radioactive residues from the nuke plants, FBagging?? Beem them up to Mars?? Do you realise that even in the most benign circumstances, humanity has no clue how to dispose of it??
