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

No, so far it has been a very serious and tragic local
accident. Some stink will be detectable around the world,
especially in Japan, but will not be seriously hazardous for
human health, with the exception of heros working at
the plant. These heros may die from radiation sickness.
If the reactor blows, then Japan will be in trouble, but the
world won't be, which is why I said the picture of winds
carrying radiation is a joke. Heavy radioactive elements
will fall out in the immediate vicinity of the plant site.

That said, any detection of tiny elevated radioactivity due
to this accident will generate public panic, and that might
reach US shores - who knows. Overall even that seems
very unlikely -g-

This is Tokyo. So, they got extra 2 days of normal background
radiation exposure, big deal -g-

Geiger counter in Tokyo. The answer is, so far, NO WAY anybody
will be able to see any radiation over background in the US,
but they've seen a tiny bit of it in Tokyo.
