I was worried about this also. That's probably there biggest issue next to the people and towns that got damaged.

Lol, that is so f-ed up that is funny. Stupid f-kers with their dolls. Kick their silly arses into the sewage muddy waters to go help find real girls.

Yah, but im really glad the international community and our #1 ally is lending japan a hand. Sending that many warships and carriers in the area will maintain high level of confidense in self defense too while the country is in its very vulnerable state.

They have lost controll over reactor 3. cooling the fuel rods went wrong and they have been exposed to air and this is causing them to heat up extremely fast.

total meltdown is very possible now.

17 american marines exposed to radiation. and the american fleet is leaving the area around the plant because of the large levels of radioactivity.

Chiba is the florida looking peninsula east of tokyo. If they were near the refinery your kit may be up im smoke. Narita airport is in Chiba and I think incoming flights are accepted...so they are not near the epicenter....unless something happened to amuse from the aftershocks. Its still rocking significantly.

chiba is nowhere near the epicenter of all this. it's slightly further south, and east of tokyo. it is probably got walloped pretty bad because it's basically on the coastline too, but it's nowhere near as bad as it is in sendai.

very good map from the BBC:


the thought of nuclear meltdown in japan just depresses me to no end...

So many factors of devastation that the rebuilding process--on all fronts--is likely to be much longer than expected. Sad.

this is looking bad guys

Japanese officials say the nuclear fuel rods appear to be melting inside all three of the most troubled nuclear reactors, according to Associated Press.
