Russia stunned after Japanese plan to evacuate 40 Million revealed

7. All calm down, please

The linked to DU thread In post #2 is full of hyperbole by people on all sides of the issue. There is far too much chair throwing here on this issue.

What do we know?

That there are some stories posted here from secondary sources reporting some things with very serious consequences. I would love to think that the sources have their shit together, but at least one, prisoner planet, has a jaded history.

Is it likely that such a situation as is reported here could escape the major media? They would jump all over this.

Nuclear issues are sensitive to people. It's scary shit and the situation in Japan is unprecedented. Would major media ignore it?

To me, this sounds like a lot of bloviating from suspect sources. DU is smarter than that.

Am I worried about Fukashima? You bet! My degree is in physics and I know about this stuff. We have a reason to be concerned. But it isn't like Cobalt Thorium G, it isn't the end of the world, even if the dubiously sourced reports are correct, which I doubt.

Let's see how this pans out before we jump to confusions, so to speak.
