Not sure if anyone is watching the news, but all the workers have been evacuated at the nuclear facility because of radiation surges. Would have posted this in the existing thread but I think it would have been largely overlooked. A couple of points that I've come across today while watching the TV...
*The believe the containment vessel that houses the #2 reactor has been compromised
*The degraded rods at the plant are not housed in a containment facility. Just a normal building in a cooling pond and are believed to be on fire.
While this may not be on the level of Chernobyl, its beginning to look, or already is worse than what happened at Three Mile Island.
