Reactor #3 just had a Reactor #1 type explosion. No damage to the containment vessel.

Good enough for me. I just saw a tweet saying the buildings are designed to move hydrogen explosions away from the reactor containment? Any truth to this?

If a nuclear reactor exploded near where your family lived, maybe you would take this matter a bit more seriously.

They were expecting reactor #3 to have some sort of explosion just like rector #1. If the containment vessel gets damaged, then that's when things could get ugly. But, it isn't damaged.

rainstorm is right...it's a shame this silly nuclear stuff is distracting attention away from the real disaster.

Tell that to the 200,000 families who have been evacuated and the hundreds of people who have been contaminated with radiation. All are disasters. Tsunami, earthquake and nuclear explosion.

For the last time, there has not been a nuclear explosion.

I the grand scheme of the whole disaster, 200k and hundreds of people isn't much.

Um, check my posting history, and see a couple of posts before this one. Since 'partial meltdown but containment held' seems to equate to 'reactor explosion' in your world.
