"Temperature data shows the two reactors have cooled sufficiently in the more than two months since the incident, Tokyo Electric said." Sufficiently... To achieve WHAT, exactly? Stability? Predictability? Benign coexistence with the rest of Creation? ...But then...
"[T]he remnants of that core are now sitting in the bottom of the reactor pressure vessel at the heart of the unit and that vessel is now believed to be leaking." THAT doesn't sound so "sufficient", OR stable, now, dos it?J
"A suspected hydrogen detonation within the No. 2 reactor is believed to have damaged that unit on May 15." SAY WHAT THERE SMILIN' JIM?
"The liquid portion [of whatever the Hell remains of the three reactor cores] still has the potential to burn through the bottom of the thick steel pressure vessel, which...is already likely to be leaking through damaged seals around the machinery that drives the reactor control rods." Nice.
"...[T]he pressure vessel itself was 'probably fine'." I'm probably not convinced.
"...U.S. experts interviewed by CNN say that while they may be containing the situation, the damage has already been done." Which does line up with what BRAWM / UCBNE's been telling us, repeatedly.
"'On the basis of what they showed, if there's not fuel left in the core, I don't know what it is other than a complete meltdown,' Gary Was, a University of Michigan nuclear engineering professor...said." Me, neither. But, what do we apocalypse-evangelizing knuckleheads know, anyway, right?
"...[G]iven the damage reported at the other units, 'It's hard to imagine the scenarios can differ that much for those reactors.'" Uh-huh.
Some...INTERESTING...Quotes There

I think they meant *March* 15. At least I hope they meant that....
