Breach HAS taken place............ http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/03/14/japan-quake-rods-idUSTKB00733720110314
How do you figure that? The article just says that the coolant is gone, but doesn't say anything about the containment vessel. Last I heard the vessels at all three reactors were still intact.
Christfuck people - the rods are exposed becuase the water(coolant) level dropped, not becuase you can see them from the sky.
Your post is wrong again --- proof= check the market it is down more than 1%. How do you manage to have the market fade your posts?
Please STFU, already. There is two reactor casings. The inner, and the outer (the reactor building). The reactor building blew up. The inner casing is intact, but admittedly, 2 of the reactors have experienced a partial meltdown (the fuel partially melted). That you even pretend intimate knowledge of a nuclear reactor or the disaster unfolding in Japan shows what a loon you are.
You get awfully excited about 1% moves. Trading indexes in this environment is a joke. Now if you'd shorted uranium stocks Friday using options you'd be up between 10 and 60 times your investment. I'm kicking myself for missing it I had Cameco on my shorting list, CCO 34P closed at 0.06 to 0.11 on Friday was the best one.
I don't pass myself off as an expert about things I know nothing about. Unlike you. If my terminology was wrong, so what? The facts are the facts. And the last thing I want is more devastation, let alone another Chernobyl. Maybe you should fly over to Japan and defuse that reactor yourself? Obviously, you're more than qualified...

Unfortunately, when there is Cesium release that is a good sign they have some breach from one or both of these reactors. Their continues to be Cesium detected in the surrounding area and even US Naval flight crew flying in the area are getting decontaminated now due to light radioactive contamination. Eventually maybe the "directed" corporate media entities will start telling the full facts......we will see.
