"The WNN service is supported administratively and with technical advice by the World Nuclear Association and is based within its London Secretariat. It draws on WNA's global network of contacts in industry, academia, research institutes and intergovernmental agencies that includes key personnel in enterprises that account for virtually all of the world's uranium mining, nuclear fuel manufacture, equipment production and nuclear power generation.

Does this mean the world isn't going to end and all those Potassium Iodide pills I bought won't be worth $50 apiece?

So, this is a different plant than the one that’s on fire, right?
Hard to keep track.

The worst performance in the history of journalism. A complete disgrace.

To: Larry Lucido
I think these are the same power plants that have been exploding and spewing nuclear smoke for days. The article says units 1,2,4, have been the problems and it’s what news sources have been reporting on since the earthquake. I know it’s confusing especially w/this article that all is now O.K. when a few hours ago the circumstances seemed dire.

The real meltdown took place in the American media. Instead of focusing on lessons learned from the earthquake and tsunami that will take tens of thousands of lives, they went into an orgy of crisis-mongering over radiation fears that will probably kill no one.
I know only the basics of nuclear power generation (I lived about a mile downwind from the Diablo Canyon plant for 10 years so I did some studying). I'm much better informed on the subject than any TV anchor I watched -- including the vaunted Megyn Kelly whose Cassandra-rant I had to turn off today. The absolute Worst was Bill Nye, the Liberal Science Guy on CNN, who talked know-nothing gobbledegook.

Posting this preemptively, as it seems to show up (presented as truth) in most FR threads on the matter:

Zatoichi?
I think what we have here is a failure to communicate.
Ichi is #1, where all the fires and explosions and radiation and all that hangs out.
Ni is #2, and they got it handled.

Another source, International Atomic Energy Agency, confirms this.
Japan Earthquake Update (15 March 2011, 14:10 UTC)
The IAEA Incident and Emergency Centre (IEC) continues to monitor the status of the nuclear power plants in Japan that were affected by the devastating earthquake and consequent tsunami.
All units at the Fukushima Daini, Onagawa, and Tokai nuclear power plants are in a safe and stable condition (i.e. cold shutdown).

Why wouldn’t they ever leave that poor Zatoichi guy alone? Someone always had to mess with him. He was just a poor, blind masseuse who liked a little saki now and then.

Hang on to them. I have much more to fear from government than I do from radioactivity. No one in my family ever died from radioactivity.

This is awesome news!
Until the next one blows up again...
To: coaltrain
Damn, I guess this means all the talking heads and “experts” will have to crawl back under their rocks till they can invent another crisis.
To: coaltrain
Excuse my ignorance...is this good or bad news?
