  • Straw poll, Who here thinks that this is a level 6 emergency like the French do and who thinks it is still a 5 and who thinks it might be a 7 like Chernobyl? Just type in a number pls.

  • @Ralph Unger Straw poll, how many people here are qualified to make that statement?
    by borrrden 3/27/2011 5:00:46 AM

  • whatever the number is I think it's rising :(

  • Very few I would think that is why it is called a straw poll.
    by Ralph Unger 3/27/2011 5:01:44 AM

  • 2.9 cubic bec. (per cent.) is what they are saying.
    by Meretisa 3/27/2011 5:01:46 AM

  • 6, on its way to 7 if the latest reports prove true. Sometimes an error by one organization gets picked up and repeated. Not saying that happened, just saying it's possible.

  • it's a 5
    by FradyKat 3/27/2011 5:02:28 AM

  • With 4 reactors involved, I see no accomodation for that in the scale.
    by Ralph Unger 3/27/2011 5:02:34 AM

  • This NHK is repeat 2.9GBq/cm3 wow
    by Jim Carver 3/27/2011 5:02:45 AM

  • @Ralph Unger Technically only 3 reactors are involved....
    by borrrden 3/27/2011 5:03:03 AM

  • Ralph: There is a reason that it's not being escalated. It has to do with evacuation. The reason that the GoJ sticks with its story is two fold: 1st has to do with liability. It's reliant on its agencies. 2nd: has to do with the magnitude of an evacuation. If it increase the area to the US recommendation, Tokyo is included. Enuf said.
    by Karen Warren 3/27/2011 5:03:07 AM

  • If the radiation at even one reactor is that bad, then I do not see how they will be able to carry out necessary work at the other reactors, either.
    by Sky 3/27/2011 5:03:26 AM

  • @Ralph, it is what it is. Attempts to categorize are often based on a need to defuse danger.
    by Alaskan 3/27/2011 5:03:28 AM

  • Based on your rating votes, reactor 3 has been voted off.
    by Scilla 3/27/2011 5:03:33 AM

  • @Karen Warren Um...no....Tokyo is not included in the U.S. recommended area of 80km
    by borrrden 3/27/2011 5:03:34 AM

  • And well said Karen.

  • Jim can you break that figure down in laymans terms for us?
    by Sinthia Domina 3/27/2011 5:03:46 AM

  • It's almost as bad as we feared it still may become. Oh, but no IMMEDIATE HAZARD
    by marie rich 3/27/2011 5:03:56 AM

  • @karen, I second that.
    by tippytoe 3/27/2011 5:04:11 AM

  • Not that Tokyo will ever be in the evacuation area, but...
    by Ralph Unger 3/27/2011 5:04:22 AM

  • Am i guessing reight here, that a Square Inch is now Terminal ?
    by VeenOui 3/27/2011 5:04:34 AM

  • @Ralph Each reactor is given its own rating, so technically we could call #5,6 much lower level while 1,2,3 might range from 5-7.
    by Bev 3/27/2011 5:04:39 AM

  • Thanks, Borrden. I read something that said it was. I was sceptical. Do you know how far away Tokyo is? I'm tired and lazy and honest... :-)
    by Karen Warren 3/27/2011 5:04:42 AM

  • @Karen Warren 240 km
