The children are counting on the competent adults to do something. How is society doing on producing the competent adults? Let’s see. First they need to figure out if abortion is legal. If gay people should get married. If eggs are bad or good. If cold water boils faster than hot water. And, if UFO’s really do exist. There are no adults that can harness the evil wizardry born from the destruction of WW11 and Nazi Germany. A wise man told me years ago that humanity will be destroyed because we bring too many atoms of the same element together. (could have been a wise woman, please don’t think of me as sexist, racist, homophobic or a biggot)

You forgot who’s gonna get voted off the island. Looks like the whole Japanese race.

Hi poor Daddy
I’m afraid that North America will probably be joining them.

Agreed.

Either we are witnessing a fuse burn or Tepco wants us focuses here because something really bad is occurring somewhere else.

I find it odd that the 2 other thermometers show dropping numbers?? Strange.

To my eye the other sensors show a slow steady increase in temperature from about Feb. 1 to Feb. 5, then a slow decline. It seems to me that matches the timing of the increased cooling water and boron.
I’m imagining one (unexplained) hot spot source near sensor H1 which also modestly impacts the more distant sensors H2 and H3, while the extra cooling water mainly affects H1 but also modestly affects H2 and H3.
Does that seem credible, given the data?
For this incident, they briefly mentioned the “defective sensor” idea early on, but abandoned it. I’m guessing the slow temperature rise from the other sensors told them they really do have a new localized hot spot in there and that H1 was probably not defective.

Hi aigeezer, hmmm, you might be right, though I think they put the boron in on Feb 6? Hell, who knows….
Guess you’re right about them seein the overall rising trend and deciding to take action based on that. Remember last year’s wild swing of rad detector in unit 3?
They never went mad over that one (publically). All they said was “defective meter”.
I saw today that Tepco calculates with an up to 20°C difference between temp readings and reality. So the actual 71°C could also be 91°C. Quite a reason to get nervous.

If the grounds around Yellowstone was rising that fast, would you stay ??

Hi xdrfox
Would I want to stay, nooooo.
Infact, I would like to be vacationing in South Africa in Cape Town right now.

Omgosh!!!! How did that happen? Is it also in Cape Town?
We need a new planet, this one is being destroyed.
