2. Well maybe I should write alarmist hysterical.

Primary container is broken. Stored wasted feared to escaping into the environment. Core may be in full melt down. Worst case, Kyshtym fuel fire, is on the cards. Tokyo Stock market in free fall.

4. Pass the cesium will ya

and remember to add some strontium to your food.

And I'd better stop the gallows humor. The other day when I scoffed at a very wrong map somebody took it seriously.

At this point I am wondering if a recall is in my future... even if the chances of getting a true emergency here are still VERY LOW
