Transcript [Emphasis Added]
KING:… Here to talk over the nuclear crisis Arnie Gundersen. He’s is a nuclear safety advocate who consults with the Vermont state government about the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant.
Mr. Gundersen, thanks for coming back. I want to draw your attention to these infrared images that we have received. The Japanese government put them out. I want to start with reactor one. These are infrared images obviously taken from above.
You see here the casing in the reactor one building and you see the heat signature here, the yellow and red. In reactor one, the government says the Ministry of Defense says the highest temperature 58 degrees centigrade so about 136.4 Fahrenheit the government say, what does that image tell you?
ARNIE GUNDERSEN, NUCLEAR SAFETY ADVOCATE: I don’t believe the highest temperature is anywhere near that. It’s probably much nearer to thousands of degrees, but — what it does show me is you’ll see sort of like a line, a straight line of hot material.
I don’t know anything inside that nuclear containment that’s a straight line. It’s all curves. So it shows me that the geometry of the hot material is distorted.
KING: What is that — if it’s been distorted, what that mean is happening inside?
GUNDERSEN: It will be — it will be harder to cool it because it looks to me like the energy is not in the spot where it should be. Looks to me like it’s formed a long line and it’s not good, but I’m more concerned about some of the other reactor there.
KING: Well, let’s close this picture down and move it over. I want to bring up reactor two. Now we don’t see as red hot here in reactor two as we did in reactor one.
But the entire, you see heat in the entire building. This is where TEPCO has said there’s a possibility of a breach in the core self. What does this picture tell you?
GUNDERSEN: Well, in the words that go with that the Ministry of Defense says that the containment vessel is at 262 degrees and that’s 50 degrees above the boiling point of water. That’s the containment vessel that’s believed to have a crack in it.
So water cannot exist inside it because it’s at atmospheric pressure as a result of the crack. It tells me the suppression pool is likely dry, and that’s the one I would be most worried about, because it seems to me that what you’re seeing there is super heated air with no water in sight.
KING: So, super heated air, a possible breach. What are the risks of trying to going and contain this to get in close what you need to do?
GUNDERSEN: You know, the vessel at 262 degrees, if you spray water, the water won’t even get to the vessel. It will begin to vaporize even before it gets there according to the Ministry of Defense. That one is the — will be the toughest nut to crack out of the three of them. …

Here we are a week later and the facts are coming out !
these are truth from a week ago !
It’s hide and seek with truth !
It’s about the $ owners/$ money makers/$ Legislators $ of nuclearar power (in bed $ together $) gaining wiggle room for in Courts at a later date to save stock prices !

Hey Reptillians and illuminati demons ! This is definately Your doing and plan. I am a remote seer, and you all HAARtp make me sick. Being a Spiritualist, I will ,and the thousands will not bomb these sights. But What if We all stopped working for you lizards, our cars broke down,Notionally), and your power would be moot?? Dont test Me, as we both know it would be your fall from Earth.No one to control, no power, new power. I am a seer, and you are seen. That rock will cry out I wont be your hiding place. your deception is moot, and with GODS help, almost over ! JC Servant

I hate to say it but my predictions have come true in the order that I made them.
Dare I say it, criticality then supercriticality? As is the case with anything, there comes a point where fixing something badly broken becomes impossible. We have passed that
point here. Nuclear plants are a crap shoot. They hum along for 18 months at a stretch
and other than highly toxic spend fuel gets stored in ever increasing piles on site. This simply cannot be sustained. Just stop taking out your trash for a year and you will see what I mean. If we cannot shoot it into the sun (ot all at once) why not drop it where geologic plates are subducting and let it get drawn down into undersea magma which is already radioactive. Conservation, Wind, and Solar Energy need to be our focus. The first viable fusion plants won’t be ready until around 2050. We need to phase nuclear power out as soon as possible. We don’t need the stuff in our back yards and certainly not in our bodies. Marinate on that for a while.
