In Nuclear Crisis, Crippling Mistrust, New York Times, June 12, 2011:

Hiroshi Kawauchi, a lawmaker in Mr. Kan’s own party [...] said that many of the residents around the plant who evacuated went north, on the assumption that winds blew south during winter in that area. That took them directly into the radioactive plume, he said — exposing them to the very radiation that they were fleeing.

    With TEPCO history, can one believe that if whole Daichii blew up yesterday, we would be informed today? I wont … Eventually we would find it out … in (January?).
    
    The current technology allows me ● to phone you using your mothers voice. If I had been following you for years, I could pull a hoax if you were not prepared into this line of thought. Or I could ● produce a documentary where we both climbed the Himalaja. Everyone except we – would believe it. Or with resources, ● one could pick any of your friends, chemically program to do him/her whatever one wanted – a personality can be programmed. (Just jump into the arizona shootin and start to dig the loner, nothin fits in the official story…)
    
    For some reason, this Fukushima has been under unbelievable secrecy. Not to mention the plutonium, 3.reactor four xplosions, global denial on fallouts, distortions etc. This means lots of resources has been thrown in. Thereby it would not be a surprise if electronics were also used in the hoax. Here on these webcams one is fully on the deliverer’s mercy – and mind you – your screen is totally blank if the pixels ahave NOT been carefully pre programmed to illuminati … err to illuminate.
    
    So please, dont believe a word above – but verify.

White orb
That white orb on the TEPCO live cam is moving very slowly to the right and there I something “hanging down” from it. When I was watching the June 12 Gunderson video,

when I was looking at the reactor #3 explosion in March, I was a huge dagger flash to the left of the rising volatilized gases and debris.

  Finch has it right, just the full moon. i’ve been watching, and the light from that indeed changes perspective as the clouds roll by. it’s elongated likely due to the shape of the lens at the edges. the bit ‘hanging down’ is a lens effect of light refracting on the lens. i may have the name for that effect wrong, but watch any old movie before the 1980′s and you see the same effect if the sun glints into the panning camera shots. you can even reproduce that effect on paint shop pro.
  
  so sad, the people did the best they knew to do, and ended up still under the plume. i suppose nerves on edge, fearful, no one in that state thought to check current wind direction.

Back to the subject: the weather forecast loop shows “rotating” winds over Honshu island from today on. See the loop here:
