Radioactive Cesium Content In Japan Sea Water 25 Times Limit, Radioactive Iodine At 127 TImes Maximum Allowed

Tyler Durden's picture




 

According to Kyodo, the Fukushima sea fallout is getting material enough to where the sea soon won't need a blacklight to glow in the dark:

  • Kyodo says radioactive caesium found in sea water 24.8 times limit
  • Kyodo says radioactive Iodine found in sea water 126.7 times limit

The only logical solution is for the Japanese ministry of deadly disinformation to raise the radioactive Cesium sea water limit by 25 times, and that of Iodine by 127 times. And all shall be well.

Let me guess, the photo is a group of nuclear engineers in hazmat suits playing:

 

  1. Who is radioactive?
  2. Doing the hokey-pokey with geiger counters
  3. Rock-Paper-Sissors to determine who goes next

From that picture you can clearly see how much #3 has melted in on itself.

I had the same impression.

"Honey, I shrunk the reactor."

A little radioactive iodine and cesium never hurt anyone.  Sounds like good ingredients to put in breakfast cereal.

Nuclear contamination good for agriculture : record size Japanese vegetables soon at a grocery store near you! 

Also good for marketing: "organic, gluten free, enriched with cesium-137!"

Yes, but record-sized vegetables attract record-sized scavenging mammals. Perhaps some chicken wire fencing around the [ three-foot-long ] carrot patch will suffice.

Yesterday I envisioned the mobile app for metro radiation readings MRR, but now I'm seeing an aquatic patch or watch device ARR for beachgoers, and then maybe a keychain reader for food shoppers, the FRR.

But this week I'm doubling my supplies of Pre-Tepco tuna, Pre-Cesium sardines and Pre-Sendai salmon, then no more, so I'll just need the MRR and the aquatic radiation reader.

OK so let's assume that ADD news cycles and culture generally have resulted in grossly distorted perceptions of where Fukishima is in terms of time to play out AND ultimate amount of damage inflicted on Japanese people, business and the downstream impacts thereof.

Assume for a second that markets have completely mispriced this event due to the same.

My question is on a spectrum, are markets providing a once in a lifetime opprotunity to go short OR are functioning capital markets so far gone that BTFD is the only (ir)rational act available to NON-fed participants?

I have my own thoughts but would like to solicit from this truly exceptional marketplace of ideas. If the latter and markets will simple melt in an inverse direction from the fuel rods at Fukishima then I am afraid western civ as we know it truly is fucked.

>>>Assume for a second that markets have completely mispriced this event due to the same.<<<

Yeah, no kidding.  I have been thinking the same thing myself.

This is not Banda Ache or Haiti.

This is a natural and nuclear disaster in a highly industrialized trading partner.

How is THIS priced in when we have no real clue what the cost is?

I keep wondering what will have to happen to spark that recognition moment.

I keep waiting to go full on retard short...

Maybe they can ship the radioactive food off to 3rd world countries that desperately need population control.

Like India.

QUESTION : Does the radio activity have a long half-life for Cesium and Iodine in WATER. I as told it diminishes fast...any ideas???

Idine half-life is 7 days, I believe; cesium 137 is 30 years.

1. Paint reactor picture as managable

2. Remove from public spotlight

3. Entomb----Minimize buffer zone

4. Resume building new nukes

What does this mean?

U.S. regulator says Fukushima nuclear plant stabilizing

WASHINGTON, March 21, Kyodo

A U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission official said Monday that the situation at the crippled nuclear power plant in Fukushima Prefecture in northeastern Japan appears to be stabilizing.

Bill Borchardt, executive director for operations at the commission, said at a meeting held in the suburbs of Washington that ''the situation there is stabilizing,'' adding the No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 reactors of Tokyo Electric Power Co.'s Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station ''appear to be functioning.''

The official also noted that off-site power is close to being connected to equipment at the plant, describing it is as perhaps ''the first optimistic sign'' since the start of the nuclear crisis in Japan.

Following a magnitude 9.0 earthquake and ensuing tsunami on March 11, the cooling functions failed at the No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 reactors and their cores are believed to have partially melted.

It means that our regulators are captured by a nuclear industry that likes to tell itself soothing stories and go to sleep with a favorite teddy bear, sucking its damn fool thumb.

This makes no f'ing sense at all.

Like quantitative easing, raising the I151 level to 127 would need to be followed by increases to 508, then 1,016, etc., as the ocean water contamination spreads.

Nook kooks are lucky that the Pacific ocean is in between Japan and the nearest country.  This allows for a lot of plausible deniability.
