dang this is crazy. are they trying to evacuate anywhere?

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

I'm reading an AP release on weather.com that says tsunami warning for Hawaii in the headline and tsunami watch in the article. wtf?!

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

Tsunami arrival estimates from PTWC/Radio NZ Intl (9:25 AM UTC/4:25 AM EST)

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

Beet, they are already saying no risk in the US:  http://www.komonews.com/news/local/117860469.html

but that's no risk based on what has happened so far, not what could happen.  I wouldn't discount the map beet posted

You should.

Yep. It doesn't even make cartographic sense anyways as the radiation levels and time frame measurements are conflated into a single discrete series.

 . . . and the map hoax gets more alarmist and elaborate.

Alarmist much Beet and jmfsct?

I'm simply relaying my training when I worked in nuke power plants in '94-95...which is probably more training than sum total of the rest of you yahoos, aside from muon.

the only action I have taken is to inform my wife back in Houston to keep the Excursion's fuel tank at least 3/4 full for the next week until this plays out

if dangerous radiation were to actually go all the way from Japan to east of the rockies, driving a few more hundred miles wouldn't make a difference.

Another explosion.

It's over, they're out of pumps. Total meltdown of all 3 reactors is now all but guaranteed.

where are you getting this?

so, no word yet from Jerry Falwell relating these tragic events to lack of Christianity in Japan?!

As I recall, some conservative Japanese politician made remarks about how the decline in traditional Japanese values was responsible, but I forget exactly who, and I can't find the exact quote.

the Tokyo Governor said the tsunami was divine punishment to wash away Japan's greed.
