given that all the governments are hiding the radiation readings, i have to wonder if the spent fuel rods in #3 blew up into the air when it exploded.

what good is a government if they can't keep their populations informed?

anyone who thinks the government works for the people simply isn't paying attention.

REACTOR 3

The reactor used uranium and plutonium, which may produce more toxic radioactivity. The spent fuel pool may have become uncovered. Reactor has 548 fuel assemblies, the spent fuel pool has 514.

Oh that plutonium reactor doesn't look very good to say the least...

...I think(?) they may term that a meltdown.

The country of Japan is in for a real serious problem. Horrible.
