Nov. 2 — “We don’t believe criticality has been maintained,” TEPCO spokesman Junichi Matsumoto said, according to a Daily Yomiuri article published at 2:33 pm ET.
“TEPCO suspects a nuclear fission chain reaction took place caused by existing neutrons within the reactor or that very local criticality took place as the water temperature in the reactor decreased and water density increased, due to the recent increase of water injection” which started on September 14, reports Yomiuri.

Whose ever seen Hogan’s Heroes?
My reaction to reading this story is an homage to Schultz?
These guys don’t even know what is going on?
Forget all the lies, the deceit, the criminality, the cover-ups, but they don’t even know what is going on in there?
Either I’m that stupid to believe this drivel or they are like Schultz who never knows anything.

WHAT THE HELL!!!

**The fresh concerns at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear facility came as a reactor in southern Japan was restarted and brought back online, marking a first since the March 11 disaster created an outcry over the safety of Japan’s nuclear power sites.**

**Forty-three of Japan’s 54 reactors are now suspended for inspections or mechanical troubles and public opposition to restarting them since the disaster has cast doubts on the nation’s overall nuclear future.**

the dark clouds brew together
more and more bad news
never happened before something
in connection with the environment, probably everything is born,radiating and nonradiating, elements and fusions
nobody can say it, or control
and the tepco gov work like Homer Sim.+Dr. Strangelove in How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

What a nonsense sentence.
Neutrons are produced by nuclear fission. They are too fast to start a chain reaction. Water is used to slow these neutrons down so they can interact more efficiently with other nuclei.
So, in general, you need neutrons and water.

Yeah, we’ll call you in when the 2nd half begins

New releases…going down the rabbit hole never felt so terrifying. Injections of water may have damaged the structure? NO REALLY? who’d have thought that would have been the cause of additional chemical releases. These releases should not be taken lightly. They need to tell the public what the hell is going on in those plants, where the Corium is in its current state and if it has coated over and become a solid. Is the core still vaporizing massive amounts of random ground material? If the radioactive substances burn into pockets of water what happens? All kinds of questions. Derp derp answers from TEPCO.

@Anthony-yep this is Yahoo in action. I have no idea why Canada is being so ridiculous at this point.
