  • @smoss Very good question. I saved all the links you posted for morning coffee reading in depth. The info on MOX makes it seem very hard to handle. I have seen mentions of changing the way they run reactors but not details of how. The more I read the more it creeps me out that they were specifically running this fuel in ancient past their life span reactors.

  • @wtm Yes I watched the white hat/helmet walk L to R squat down stand up and then 2 more came out. Guess it could be my eyes but have been watching their movements for 5-6 mins.

  • @ch, I can't tell it is workers, just see movement here. What is interesting is the right side of the fence/railing, you can't see the stuff behind it. The big pipe in the background comes down and then disappears behind the railing. There is either a building there or something was put up so you can't see what is happening behind that side of the railing.

  • #ch, I think I can just about make them out now. Don't know what they are doing ?? But the side of the building should not be changing red-brown-red !!!

  • @wtm Ihave watched arms reach,stretch, move and bodies turn sidewas then silohoute. And I agree with you- I think there is some kind of screen across the railing. And no idea for change in coloring unless its some weird steam, or vapor coming out.

  • @nancy Thanks! I definately value your input...must say "bye!" for now...

  • @wtm Did you notice the camera is in a different position today? Walkway or whatever that is is much shorter- allowing for this angle to utilize the screeen at bottom

  • Well, it's after 1 in the afternoon here, but good morning all. I have slept the long sleep of the jet lagged.

  • @bo Afternoon Bo! Good to have you back!
    by Angie 6/12/2011 4:23:14 AM

  • Hi @Angie, thanks for holding the Asia-Pacific/Australian time zone down for a few weeks!
    by bo 6/12/2011 4:24:09 AM

  • @ch, Of they put up a screen to block the view...so much for transparency !!!
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:28:13 AM

  • @bo lol I have missed you around at our time zone thats for sure!!! lol
    by Angie 6/12/2011 4:29:02 AM

  • @ch, still doesn't account for the building color changes ?
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:29:04 AM

  • @ch, it is smoke from somthing below, I can see it in the lattice work on the top of the building, and then very lightly above the building, then it diminishes and blows away.
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:32:01 AM

  • @wtm watch it's almost as if it's some kind of vapor - just don't know my chemistry well ienough to say what makes what color. Ilooked on tbs and could almost/maybe see slight discoloration in the air or could be my imagination??
    by ch 6/12/2011 4:32:36 AM

  • So is tippycam dead? Is there a functional link?
    by bo 6/12/2011 4:34:20 AM

  • @wtm It was a little lighter a few mins ago. Either it's getting dark or smoke/steam/vapor,fog is clouding it
    by ch 6/12/2011 4:34:39 AM

  • @Bo No it changed sites address again. This one works for me www.youtube.com
    by ch 6/12/2011 4:37:37 AM

  • Great. Thanks @ch
    by bo 6/12/2011 4:38:38 AM

  • I was hoping that TBS didn't take their cam down, Guess it just times out on youtube after a while.
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:42:58 AM

  • I can't seem to see what it is that is blocking the right side of the railing though ?
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:44:00 AM

  • Lots of hard hats there now, something is going on ?
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:45:07 AM

  • It looks like they are putting a screen up, now on the left side of the railing, the right side is going opaque !
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:47:08 AM

  • @wtm What are they doing - seeing who can get their dosimeter to go up highest? Must be some kind of small gauge mesh like tent netting that at certain angles is hard to see through.
    by ch 6/12/2011 4:50:18 AM

  • @ch, ???? Hard hat convention ???
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:51:59 AM

  • @wtm do you know if steam off of rust would show up that color?
    by ch 6/12/2011 4:52:04 AM

  • @wtm I can sure think of other convention sites I'd prefer to gather at.
    by ch 6/12/2011 4:53:51 AM

  • @ch, not that I know of ??? I don't know if that is the side of the building that has the doors to the inside ? Might be they tried to enter, and it is emitting smoke and they are trying to fight a fire or something, can't tell if they might be spraying water ?
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:54:30 AM

  • @wtm I was kind of wondering if they were spraying something too??
    by ch 6/12/2011 4:56:43 AM

  • @ch, either that is smoke rising up the side of the building, or the building itself is having something happen to it ? It seems to be centered about 2/3 of the way up the building ??
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:56:56 AM

  • @ch, 6 to 8 hard hats bobbing up and down !
    by wtm 6/12/2011 4:59:05 AM

  • @ch, it's the annual TEPCO wiener roast !!!!
    by wtm 6/12/2011 5:02:23 AM

  • @wtm Who 's bringing the marshmellows?
    by ch 6/12/2011 5:03:35 AM

  • @ch, I was going to say Homer, but he's bringing the donuts !!! Doh!!
    by wtm 6/12/2011 5:05:07 AM

  • Is Nancy on here tonight ??
    by wtm 6/12/2011 5:06:12 AM

  • @wtm
    lol
    by ch 6/12/2011 5:06:20 AM

  • @wtm She was here earlier but I think she went to bed
    by ch 6/12/2011 5:06:59 AM

  • @ch, I can see little wisps of steam on the tops of 2 & 3, and then wisps of brown on top of #1, then is diminishes rapidly, so it has to be a smoke of some sort ??? Can't see where or what is causing it.
    by wtm 6/12/2011 5:09:24 AM

  • @ch and @wtm are you watching tippycam or Tepcocam?
    by bo 6/12/2011 5:09:57 AM

  • Hey all, just scanning around.
    by carabnr 6/12/2011 5:11:07 AM

  • @ch, unless it is a heavy smoke and it is actually coming from the work floor of the building and then oozing down the side ?
    by wtm 6/12/2011 5:11:25 AM

  • @carabnr konichiwa
    by bo 6/12/2011 5:11:47 AM

  • @bo, teppy cam, check out #1 unit, the side of the building is reddish-brown, and there are lots of hard hats on the bottom, moving around ?
    by wtm 6/12/2011 5:12:09 AM

  • Konichiwa Ohio Gozaimasu.
    by carabnr 6/12/2011 5:12:44 AM
