Congratulations. You’re now linking (with absolutely no comment or analysis) to an article about a draft report, yet to be peer reviewed, that suggests that in the event of a full meltdown, fatalities would be a lot lower than they’d previously estimated. Should I take this to mean you’re starting to revise your previous position and now agree nuclear is relatively safe as a power supply? Or just as further proof that you really are just gibbering at random. ---

Ah, another post with a link to a bunch of boxes annotated in Japanese. Were you laboring under the impression that this is a Japanese oriented message board? Or, to put it another way…is ya jus’ ignorant, or is ya stupid? Not that those are mutually exclusive in cases such as yours… -XT ---

The numerals are in English. The spot is obvious. It’s the one that says “\>10 mSv”. It even has it’s own special color so idiots can figure it out. ---

Wait, it’s actually “\>10,000”, since the units are mSv ---

You know what would be even better? If you had the intelligence of pocket lint and could grasp the concept that this is not a Japanese message board, and that if you want to post something you find a fucking English translation…THAT would really be something. Sadly, idiots such as you are unable to grasp this seemingly basic and simple concept. Of course, I think you are doing it deliberately, since you are a troll after all, and you keep bumping this idiotic thread (how could it be otherwise, since an idiot started it??) for reasons known only to yourself and the woodchuck you have crammed up your ass. -XT ---

In Unit 1 nuclear power plant, Fukushima Daiichi is to examine the pipe to measure the radioactive material in the containment, at 11 am two days, the amount of radiation put a robot remotely controlled room upstairs reactor building has a plumbing were measured. As a result, around pipes passing through the inside of this room is that the extremely high radiation doses were measured over 5000 mSv per hour. This has been the highest among the radiation dose was confirmed in the building of Unit 1 to Unit 4 of the past. This room is in place through which the pipe was measured radiation dose in excess of mSv 10,000 per hour outdoors each day, venting to release radioactive material outside of containment on March 12, the day after the earthquake It is used when. TEPCO, as there is a possibility that the radiation dose is higher in adhering to the piping that high concentrations of radioactive material during the event, while in this room off limits to the future, considering the radiation treatment block Then have.

The readings inside the containment and in the basement are so high they can’t even be measured. There’s a reason they don’t ever let spent fuel rods out of the storage pools. ---

Pro tip #2: With few exceptions (The Gonz being one ‘notable’ one), everyone is laughing at you and/or rolling their eyes because you are such an idiot. Pro tip #3: When you talk about other people building strawmen it’s not only off the chart, irony wise, but it shows that fundamentally you don’t even know what a strawman IS. Pro tip #4: You are an idiot. Embrace the reality. Pro tip #5: Stop bumping this thread. This thread never had any shred of relevance to it…it was just your rant thread since you were getting your ass handed to you in the OTHER (myriad) OMG IT’S A NUCLEAR WASTELAND!! threads on Japan. If you have something relevant to say, start a new freaking thread or revive one of the REAL threads on the subject. Which brings us to… Pro tip #6: Don’t use cites in Japanese. Moron. This is not a Japanese message board. Idiot. This is a message board that is in English…use English cites. You don’t see me citing stuff in Spanish, or any of our European 'dopers citing stuff in one of the various European languages, right? People on this message board use ENGLISH. So, find English translations if you just have to provide your latest burning news. Most of your big news was on CNN this week, as 5 seconds of searching would have told you. If that’s not good enough then find translations for the sites you feel you just have to link too. -XT [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/rantings-about-stupid-nuclear-reporting-and-i-want-to-bitchslap-somebody-also-other-crap/576077.md?page=45) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/rantings-about-stupid-nuclear-reporting-and-i-want-to-bitchslap-somebody-also-other-crap/576077.md?page=47)
