And you got this information from where exactly? You may want to let these guys know: http://www.jma.go.jp. Apparently, you know much more than they do.
FYI, I happen to live in Tokyo. In which prefecture of Japan do you live? I'd like to know.
Anyway, I am out of this thread. Forever...
From the Reuters page:
Talk about overreacting. Why would there be any more risk of earthquakes now than at any time? Even if I were French, I wouldn't leave. How about helping with the recovery efforts instead? Stupid frogs. Good riddance. :rolleyes:
This is P&WA. We don't try the other guy's way. We tell the other guy that his way makes no sense and follow that with a personal attack.
Should I get my brother again? And my dad? :tongue:
This page has live information about earthquakes: http://www.jma.go.jp/en/quake/
You can go backwards in time to see every single quake happening in Japan. Most of the stronger ones are the 8.9 aftershocks, but some are aftershocks from the Nagano quake that occurred yesterday.
Yeah sure, but at least the source of information is closer. The 24-hour news channels will just regurgitate what Japanese outlets are saying and in the process add some garbage like "purple monkey dishwasher." I don't think any non-Japanese news outlet has any in with TEPCO, any more than NHK does.
Use real news sources, not 24-hour "news" channels. Most of Japan's major papers and news outlets have English pages. They will have translations available quicker than US sources.
To be frank, viewed from inside Japan (although I am not Japanese), I'd much rather all those sensationalism-seeking networks - CNN included - stay the **** out of it. They're like NASCAR spectators, whose main interest is to witness an accident. All they do is spread unsubstantiated bs. I guess...
I can open them. I checked the embedded fonts and some of them are Japanese fonts, even though no Japanese characters are used (except for the author in the properties page). That's probably why you have problems. I attached the "in-depth" pdf, it's only one page.
The articles are just popping up on Japanese pages. The latest may not be translated to English yet. Every Japanese channel has been showing explanations about the containment vessel and the seawater insertion, so I guess they are going to do it.
A TEPCO spokesperson made a statement on Japanese TV about 20 minutes ago. The explosion was supposedly from a buildup of hydrogen around the containment vessel. Apparently, they will flood the containment vessel with seawater (and boric acid?) Does that make sense? They also increased the...
Words. Words that turn to bitter wax in my ears. You're too late sister. :tongue:
See the above posts about doctors, starting from Evo's. That's really all you girls want, isn't it? And us PhD's aren't good enough. Only the guys with them stethoscopes are good enough.
