I prefer to think of it, or hope for it, to be a mistake. It's easier for me to digest that with less heartburn...

VonMessa, I'd suggest that it a few numbers and facts were mixed up in the process
of the media getting all this jumble of news from overseas. Honest mistake? Possibly.
Media hype? Possibly as well.

Things are a mess right now, from the media to ground zero. I would take the news
with an extra grain of salt at this point.

As a rule, I don't ever take any media source as completely accurate.

Statistics can be manipulated to show anything.

60% of people know this to be true  :D

Keep us updated, Rolex.  We're all hoping this works out for the best. :aok

Very serious now.

The containment vessel may have been breached.
The workers have evacuated the plant.

Things are happening very fast - this is serious

Just saw an interview where the guy was saying the containment vessel may have failed.  Can anyone verify?

EDIT:  Rolex posted while I was typing. 

Good luck dude, we're all pulling for ya.

No one can verify as of this minute, but appears that way. Real time instantaneous information is difficult.

I'm so sorry to hear about this, I hope it doesn't reach you and your family Rolex, it looks like everyone's worst fears about this situation are starting to happen.

I'll be praying for your family & everyone else over there. :pray

CNN is reporting right now that the company that controls the reactors have lied in the past about dangers from the reactor.

The area has been evacuated for days.

Things are still not 100% clear and everything now is just speculation.

Seems those poor people just can't get a break from all these disasters. Hopefully things will be better for not only their sake, but people in other countries as well.
