No “partial meltdown” at TMI. Stopped reading right there. Some steam was released and it was clean.
The NRC did much more harm than good at TMI with their alarmist reports onthe possible Hydrogen bubble explosion.
I had a friend who was a health physicist when this happened. He hoped on his motorcycle and drove up there to see if he could help.
He called us back about the MSM news reports about the “panicked emptying of nearby towns due to the potential disaster”. He said that yes, the towns were empty, but it was because everyone was down at the plant fenceline watching the spectacle!
