Wow!

They just announced that emergency helicopters are getting ready to try to drop rocks there to plug the holes in the emergency spillway.

That’s a wonderful, patriotic gesture, ain’t it?

During press conference, they said it may not happen, cuz pressure is reducing.

Add to that the Fukushima reactor pumping out hot radioactives into the ocean and you have radioactive water spilling down the spillways.

Ok, maybe I made THAT one up.

Isn't there doing to be enough debris without adding more rock to the deluge.

If it’s true there’s only 6” of water over the emergency spillway right now, down from 2 feet, the situation is much less dire at the moment ( for now).
