I'm off to catch some sleep, see everyone in about 8hrs.

@estacion Wow..

Hody fellow observers of the Events as it happens on Veeneroids :-O

@LM I haven't checked the postings, how did my Twitter post's compare to USGS?

@LM Are you on Twitter ? I am testing an immediate notifyer from different providers ?.....I do know, thast USGS has hardly had any postings.compared to EMSC, i thought it may have been a bottleneck ?

@LM I am not doing anything at all.......when USGS releases, it comes up on Twitter but I guess, my account alreeady posted it anyways

@Veenie Ahhhh. it's been pretty quiet except for a lot little quakes in California...hopefully doesn't portend anything but I get nervous when it's this quiet for this long...especially now.

Nite all!

@Veenie
I like.

@about CBTO findings of radiation. They decided 25th of March to contribute with info concerning the Fukushima cricis. They write about it here: www.ctbto.org

Here they write about how the radiation first spread around the world:\

Initial findings
The first analysis results of the monitoring data became available a few days after the accident. A clear picture quickly emerged. Initial detections of radioactive materials were made on 12 March at the Takasaki monitoring station in Japan just 250 km away from the troubled power plant. The dispersion of the radioactive isotopes could then be followed to eastern Russia on 14 March and to the west coast of the United States two days later.
Spreading across the entire globe

Nine days after the accident, the radioactive cloud had crossed Northern America. Three days later when a station in Iceland picked up radioactive materials, it was clear that the cloud had reached Europe. By day 15, traces from the accident in Fukushima were detectable all across the northern hemisphere. For the first four weeks, the radioactive materials remained confined to the northern hemisphere, with the equator initially acting as a dividing line between the northern and southern air masses. As of 13 April, radioactivity had spread to the southern hemisphere of the Asia-Pacific region and had been detected at stations located for example in Australia, Fiji, Malaysia and Papua New Guinea

@Mona, current TEPCO cam is live, and is close up looking at the plant from NW of Reactor #1, a complete different angle shot. AND it is LIVE !!!!!

It turns out that Ikata in Ehime prefecture, where plutonium was detected, has a nuclear power plant with a reactor loaded with MOX fuel. www.worldnuclear.org So the good news is maybe the plutonium didn't come from Fukushima. The bad news is we may have another leaking MOX reactor.

@Angie Sorry missed a bunch of posts.

It seems like MOX tends to leak, I wouldn't want to live near a plant using it.

@Angie lol I had to drop everything too, not a lot of time today!

@Will It's possible that the quake or aftershocks (despite the distance) shook things up sufficiently to create a leak. I wonder if anybody is going to do anything about this. Plus it is still possible that the plutonium came from Fuku.

@Will It seems likely that there will be a large aftershock somewhere in the next year or two, in the 7.8 range. With the lack of experienced workers, or workers already irradiated from Fukushima, the odds of another crisis grow. Fingers crossed indeed.

Oil has been found leaking into the sea near the crisis-hit Fukushima nuclear power plant, possibly from nearby oil tanks that may have been damaged in the March earthquake and tsunami, the plant operator said Tuesday, adding that it will set up oil fences to prevent the liquid from spreading into the Pacific Ocean. mdn.mainichi.jp
