@♫Hudebnik The limits are set from how big % radiated food is of total diet. And I strongly believe that limitations in Japan is lower because so large % of their food is risk food. Like fish, that also is lower in Japan, but they eat so much of it, so they also get more bequerel. Think something about this here: europa.eu

Headline from linked europeancitizen link. "The radioactive Iodine-131 leaked for months from an isotope factory at Csilleberc, Hungary" Nov. 18, 2011

That's a large Hungarian newspaper I meant to say.... ewwww....

@lillymunster Is it in Hungarian?

@lillymunster Good. Reading Hungarian is hard work (even if you're Hungarian;). @Peter, supposedly, this plant has leaked like a sieve for months since the beginning of the year (it was offline from June to August for filter replacement, maintenance, etc.). Yes, some people, not the least of which is the IAEA, are asking what what wrong and who is responsible. Unfortunately, the IAEA cannot compel the isotope plant's operators to provide answers, just as the LMP cannot force the governing party to answer any questions or take any action. The IAEA can ask for an inspection, but has no authority to

@Andrea C. , there you go!

@Peter If not even the almighty Hungarian nation can run a nuclear program, nobody on earth can do it!!! I'm being sarcas..., no, totally serious, here. :)

Looking forward to reading all the informational loot everyone has found. It's 5:30 a.m. and I'm finally going to bed. Huje Magyarok :(((.

I'm pretty much through the kindle book fukushima meltdown book that was translated, I will post excerpts when I have time.

could copy/paste sections but it is worthwhile reading.




Not much new in the way of describing what happened but the impression I get is that Fukushima is NOTHING compared to what else could blow up in Japan, especially the nuke plant near tokyo and all the fuel at the reprocessing site that has never worked.

fukumeltdown excerpt scientist predicted syndrome
Professor at Kobe University) predicted that a nuclear power plant accident like the present one was possible, and issued warnings from the late ‘90s. People had been warning of the danger of earthquake-caused nuclear accidents since the 1970s, but Ishibashi, from the specialized standpoint of seismology, proposed a new concept, which he called genpatsu shinsai [Translator’s note: this expression literally means Nuclear-Power-Plant-Earthquake Disaster. As there is no English expression for this (the phenomenon itself is new) in this work we will render it as genpatsu shinsai syndrome. See the Translators’ Foreword.]. By this he meant a situation in which, as the damage from the earthquake widens, the situation is made doubly worse by nuclear radiation damage.
