Hopefully this can be helpful in deciding just how bad this situation really is.
some pictures of the reactor pool in unit 4 and such.
They are saying that the bottom of the pool has been breached and is leaking into the soil(which we knew already)

I would like to add something that is bugging me. People say to me, oh we are constantly being radiated, Japan is far enough away, blah blah blah.
What they don't understand is that, yes we are constantly being bombarded with radiation from the sun and cosmic rays, etc. BUT what they don't
understand is that when you have chemical elements being radiated, THAT IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THING!
Just imaging a piece of dust. This dust is radiated. You inhale the dust and it finds a nice cozy spot in your lung. Now this small piece of radiation
is constantly emanating radioactive particles into a specific area in your body, actually in your lungs, where there isn't skin to fend from the
elements. This is altering, damaging your DNA, which in turn produces RNA, which in turn produces PROTEIN which help in the developing of skin cells,
organ tissue, hair, and many other things in your body.
So when someone questions your fear about nuclear radiation, ask them how can defective DNA strands produce effective properly working
cells?
