# 0052: Details are now emerging about radiation levels after the blast at Fukushima's reactor 2 at 0610 local time (2110 GMT Monday). Tokyo Electric officials say that one hour of exposure at the nuclear plant would be equivalent to eight times at what a person might experience naturally during the year.
[So 1 hour equals 8 years natural radiation exposure around the reactors.]
Amazing how some people on FR seem to be the modern technology version of cargo cultists or something. Anyone interested in or presenting actual news are called panickers, paranoia obsessed, etc.
It’s quite an eye-opener.
