And what exactly is your source to make a statement like this? Let me guess: You have a Ph.d. in nuclear physics. Or maybe it's just your bunghole.

When the Chernobyl disaster took place, this was the range of the radiation:

chernobyl_cs137-0325.png
chernobyl_map.gif


Compare it to the distance between Japan and the west coast:

world%20map1.gif


The radiation from Chernobyl reached places such as Sweden and Norway, but people weren't exactly dying there because of it. IF the worst case scenario happens, the radiation that reaches U.S. will be very weak and it will be hard to prove whether there was a connection between the Japan radiation and the death of a person on the west coast.

Quit trying to scare people. I am so sick of you NT Messiah-complex sensationalist conspiracy theorists, thinking you know something no one else does and getting mental orgasms at the thought of you being able to say "See, I told you so" to people if a disaster happens.

Its really quite annoying.  People trying to scare others and claim they're "just informing" when in reality they have no research or evidence of their claims.

[h2]Fukushima Nuclear Accident – a simple and accurate explanation[/h2]
Posted on 13 March 2011 by Barry Brook

Along with reliable sources such as the IAEA and WNN updates, there is an incredible amount of misinformation and hyperbole flying around the internet and media right now about the Fukushima nuclear reactor situation. In the BNC post Discussion Thread – Japanese nuclear reactors and the 11 March 2011 earthquake (and in the many comments that attend the top post), a lot of technical detail  is provided, as well as regular updates. But what about a layman’s summary? How do most people get a grasp on what is happening, why, and what the consequences will be?

Below I reproduce a summary on the situation prepared by Dr Josef Oehmen, a research scientist at MIT, in Boston. He is a PhD Scientist, whose father has extensive experience in Germany’s nuclear industry. This was first posted by Jason Morgan earlier this evening, and he has kindly allowed me to reproduce it here. I think it is very important that this information be widely understood.

Please also take the time to read this: An informed public is key to acceptance of nuclear energy — it was never more relevant than now.

———————————

I am writing this text (Mar 12) to give you some peace of mind regarding some of the troubles in Japan, that is the safety of Japan’s nuclear reactors. Up front, the situation is serious, but under control. And this text is long! But you will know more about nuclear power plants after reading it than all journalists on this planet put together.

There was and will *not* be any significant release of radioactivity.
