Maybe Californians should inundate the California Department of Public Health with phone calls and demand some answers be made public? Call local news stations too.

OOOOPS: Last Night 23,000,000,000,000 units of Radiation accidentally spilled at Fukushima Nuclear Disaster Site
Thursday, 20 February 2014 00:20

February 20, 2014 -- (TRN) The Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) which operated the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, crippled by an earthquake and tsunami in March, 2011, announced it spilled 23 TRILLION units of radiation Wednesday, as one of their storage tanks "leaked." That 100 tons of radioactive water is now entering the Pacific Ocean, where currents will carry it to north America. Hey California, get ready to glow! Would anyone care for another serving of Sushi?

Tokyo Electric Power Co. said it found a new leak near the tanks holding contaminated water at the disaster site. About 100 metric tons (26,400 gallons) of water may have escaped a concrete barrier, the company said.

Beta radiation readings of 230 million becquerels per liter were taken in a water sample collected today near the H6 tank area at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi plant, according to an e-mailed statement from the Tokyo-based utility. (230 Million times 100 tons = 23 Trillion units)

In addition to last night's enormous spill, about 300 tons of contaminated groundwater seep into the ocean each day at the Dai-Ichi station 240 kilometers (150 miles) north of Tokyo, Japan’s government had said in the past.

It has now been 1,076 days since 3 reactors at the Fukushima plant melted-down and exploded, releasing more radiation into the atmosphere in that one week, than all the nuclear test-detonations by all the countries of the world, combined. Over and above the atmospheric radiation, there's also been 300 tons of water per day, (79,200 gallons) times 1,076 days equals 85,219,200 gallons of lethally poisoned radioactive water that has poured into the Pacific Ocean -- so far. There's no sign at all of TEPCO being able to stop this anytime soon.

In fact, Reactor Building #3 is still so heavy radioactive, they have not been able to send anyone - or even any robot- into that building to even SEE what's going on in there. If any person enters that building, they will receive a lethal dose of radiation within 6 minutes and die within hours. Nothing would be able to save them. Any robots they tried to send in, failed; their circuitry disintegrated -- not from heat -- from radiation.

Between May 2011 and August 2013, as many as 20 trillion becquerels of cesium-137, 10 trillion becquerels of strontium-90 and 40 trillion becquerels of tritium entered the ocean via groundwater, according to past statements from TEPCO. Is there any wonder at all why sea life in the Pacific Ocean is dying planet-wide? Starfish off the coast of California are literally melting on the sea floor. Sardines: gone. U.S. Fisherman can't find any. Whales and even sharks are showing up with huge tumors. Sharks aren't even supposed to be ABLE to get cancer! Tuna, caught off California tested 100% positive for radiation.

All these things are taking place and yet the US government IS NOT TESTING Pacific ocean water for radiation levels! Like lambs to the slaughter, people are still swimming, scuba diving, surfing and fishing in the Pacific off the U.S. Coast. The worst part is the sick logic employed by the government decision NOT to test: If they don't test, then they "Do not have any evidence of dangerous radiation" and if they don't have any evidence, there mustn't be anything to worry about! The Psychiatric term for such thinking is "denial."

The trouble with such denial is that real people will get cancer and die from not knowing.

I don't think there's anyway to confirm any information coming out of Fukushima.
Arnie Gunderson seems to be the most reliable source.

Everything I've read says that radiation attacks the thyroid and testicles first...so as long as you don't have cysts growing on your thyroid, or lumps on your testicles, you should be fine.

I am not overly concerned about the radiation. I grew up close enough to the Nevada Test Site to,watch the atmospheric shots. We could see the fireball and the mushroom cloud from the ranchhouse window. I was exposed to radiation fallout from the dust cloud blowing over us when I was in highschool. I worked at Nevada Test Site when one of the underground shorts vented only a few miles from the trailer I was sleeping in. I have no symptoms so far.

But I don't relish the idea of eating radiation contaminated fish.


The atomic test remind me of a story about the patriarch of the oldest ranch in central Nevada. The AEC (Atomic Energy Commision) had radiation monitoring stations around the country side. One of these stations was on this particular ranch measuring the radiation in the irrigation water. One day a government pickup entered the ranch, two men got out ant checked the station. Grandpa Joe saw them come uninvited on his property. He got in his pickup and stopped the two men. He told them to get the hell off my property. They replied "were from the government". Joe said "I don't give a damn who you are. If you want to come on my property you come to the house and ask permisión first. Out here in the west we have two kinds of actions, legal action and lever action" as he reached over and patted his 30-30 and I prefer the latter now get off my land".

The question that needs to be asked is, what kind of radionuclides were you exposed to during the Nevada controlled nuclear testing?
I think we have something far different coming out of Fukushima.
Iodine-131, Cesium-137, Plutonium, Strontium, Lanthanum, Tellurium & Xenon, are just a few.
In Fukushima you have water rushing over spent fuel, molten fuel and new fuel, also a lot of radioactive solids that were ejected into the atmosphere, ground and water, during the explosions.
To my understanding, the testing done in NV was complete fission/burning of the fuels used.

Maybe this site will enlighten (or radiate) some here.

You raise some valid points. I agree we should be concerned about the contamination especially since it is reportedly entering the Pacific Ocean. Even more so if this has been ongoing for the past three years. It seems to me that with the passage of three years of radiation contaminated water spilling into the Pacific there would be measurable amounts in the water, on the beaches and in the fish. I would think some individual or group of individuals would have some proof by now. I know we can't depend on the government to tell us the truth. As far as the radiation coming inland, unless there is still radiation being released into the atmosphere like from the original blast I don't think the radiation in the ocean would be carried inland other than by marine plants, fish and animals used for human and livestock consumption. Today there is so much disinformation on the internet it is nearly impossible to know what is fact and what is not. I was told from a early age "believe only half of what you see and none of what you read". That certainly rings true today.


Edit: If there is that amount of radiation in the forms you listed undoubtedly the ocean life is pretty much doomed. With that big an upset to the balance of nature who can predict what is in front of us?
Doomed if we do and doomed if we don't.

just what if that why there been no big rains on calf . what if they have a way slow down how much rain any part of the world can get at any time . what if they stop it from raining to stop it from being all over the western united states
