I agree with this. The earthquake was already bad enough, 4th largest in recorded history. Then a tsunami at least as bad as the Asian tsunami. Add in the partial meltdown of multiple reactors, and a hope and prayer that we don't get a full scale meltdown of multiple reactors. It is like a black swan event to the power three. When do they start to drop concrete from helicopters?
Since these plants are usually located by the water why can't they locate the reactors few meters under the sea/lake level and in case of meltdown have pipes that can be manually opened flood the reactor with continous lake water. Of course in case of eathquake the pipe could get broken so maybe have 2 pipes?
for those that are worried... http://www.businessinsider.com/japan-reactors-pose-no-risk-2011-3 maybe that article would help a bit.

Good call. Probably T Geithner or Bearice. didn't want to ruin the awesome reputation of one of those names.
LOL I've heard you Americans are mental and stupid but I just chuged it as our government propaganda. We were always told you make poor students, doctors and engineers reading posts on ET I've come to realize you people really are stupid You pointed out my misspelling on ET as evidence that I am wrong. Some of you made fun of my family ALL this despite RT, CNN, National Post announcing that mega radiation is already released into atmosphere. When radiation reaches US soil how many of you will be man enough to apologize to me. You people are so stupid you even believe US government will report on radiation/. NO reports will come from independent universities I am going to call my dad and tell him all this on ET we are going to laugh how stupid you are also two more reactors will soon explode sayonara suckers
I believe very strongly the Japanese govt is full on lying. Not downplaying, lying. They continued to state it was under control while things were exploding. If it was under control, no one would have been hurt by the roofs blowing off. Now using helicopters to dump water... Obviously it's completely F'in exposed if they can dump water on it from the sky.
