We heard the same thing about TMI. How long did it take before they pulled the reactor vessel out of TMI-1 and shipped it to Idaho for tear-down? Six years.
See, this is why I have a hard time taking this crap seriously. We’ve heard it before.
Again and again and again. From the same hysterical hippies and peaceniks, given to the press in dire, somber tones by highly credentialed, Volvo-driving liberals wearing sensible shoes.
Greenpeace’s video was laughable theatre. There are only two explanations for the crap seen in Greenpeace’s video:
1. They’re so ignorant of what proper safety equipment really is for a hot area, that they’ve just caused themselves huge radioactive exposure and ingestion/inhalation of alpha particles, if they’re actually showing off real danger.
2. They’re depending on the ignorance of the segment of public that listens to their codswallop so as to overlook the errors in their little piece of theatre.
Since I’ll NB that physical courage is not the stuff that French environmentalists and Greenpeace are known for, and the environmental movement is rife with duplicity and mendacity, I’ll take choice “2.”
I'm amazed at your pathetic attitude -- NOT !
Those very brave people risked their lives to record radiation live on the scene in a "safe area" 35 KM away from Fukushima. And you call them "hysterical hippies and peaceniks . . . " The Geiger Counter clearly showed radiation FAR above safe limits.
Your ignorance is reflecting Ann Coulter's:

LOL LOL !
The panic and hysteria mongers promote deadly attitudes among people. The Station Night Club Fire, Warwick, RI, in February 2003 was a disaster made far worse by crowd panic. Perhaps it was an example of people trained to panic by the media and panic mongers, imo.
In that night club that night panicked people trampled each other and created a human trap in the doorway out, caught halfway out of the exit door, the news cameras caught their last moments in horror. If only ... panic did not rule them, that whole group could have made it through the door, with some burns, but alive. Panic kills.
Why panic or sow fear on discussion boards like this? It helps not. It adds to the burdens of those actually trying to make the dangerous situation better, to save lives.
This behavior -- engaging in such sport and idle pastime for their own thrills and chills -- which we see here on these FR threads -- I despise.
