Japan's niclear concerns explained
 

Good tutorial on Japan's nuclear reactor here:

Very interesting read but what happens to the fuel rods ? How do you turn them off ?

If there is no water circulating to cool them down, and the control rods are not enough, they will keep on burning...until when ?

This is what happened at Chernobyl, they just burned and burned through levels of concrete.

scary shit....

The explanations about reactors are quite complicated. It seems like the answer to any question is IQ lessons nowadays.

Please go cut your throat.
