This wouldn't work today as there are hardly any brown paper bags around, and using a plastic bag substitute would be a melt-on disaster :banana Can we substantiate these so called fact? |

But in anycase you can read it on the internet, therefore it must be true: pressf1.pcworld.co.nz It was also advised from memory in the Government Pamphlet on how to survive a nuclear attack.....wapedia.mobi As far as cheap, virtually no cost electricity was concerned, that is just a well know fact for those who were around. You also have to take it as true from an ex-employee of English Electric/GEC Power Engineering...:) |

They were storing the rods in big pool (it was not in operation at the time of the quake) and now the rods are overheating and the pool caught fire ! They are trying to drop water on the fire from a chopper. And they say they heave nearly got a power line to the power station, so hopefully that will help get things running again. |

| 1185411 | 2011-03-16 20:34:00 | The reason I don't like nuclear power is the problem of disposing of the nuclear waste and storing it for hundreds of years ... And moving the spent/reprocessed fuel around the world on ships and trains - high risk And thirdly the problem and cost of dismantling the power stations. |
