PLUTONIUM - It's not a Planet

But, like the Moon, it now circles the Earth.
From Ron Paul's people:
"Largely absent from most mainstream media reports on the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster is the fact that a highly-dangerous "mixed-oxide" (MOX) fuel is present in six percent of the fuel rods at the plant's Unit 3 reactor. Why is MOX a big deal? According to the Nuclear Information Resource Center (NIRS), this plutonium-uranium fuel mixture is far more dangerous than typical enriched uranium -- a single milligram (mg) of MOX is as deadly as 2,000,000 mg (4.4 pounds) of normal enriched uranium.

1 Gram = 1 000 000 Micrograms

Put in another way, 1 micro-gram (.000001 gm) of plutonium is as dangerous to your health as 2 grams of uranium! Find a dime. A dime weighs 2 grams!

On March 14, Unit 3 of the Fukushima reactor exploded, sending a huge smoke plume into the air. This particular reactor, of course, contains the rods fueled with MOX."
Was it a nuclear criticality? Only time will tell. Is this guy a flake?

********************************************************
A recently published study in the Journal of Environmental Radioactivity confirms that the radioactive fallout from the Fukushima nuclear disaster reached Europe (Lithuania), and included plutonium, the deadliest man made element in existence.

According to the study’s authors the radionuclide concentrations measured indicate there was “long-range air mass transport from Japan across the Pacific, the North America and the Atlantic Ocean to Central Europe.

What this means is that half of the planet north of its equator — could have been exposed to some degree of plutonium fallout.

This is worth noting when we consider there is no safe level of Plutonium, and that - like true love - the damage it can do (on the human scale of time) is forever. The half life of plutonium-239 is 24,200 years.

The last mini ice age was only 12,000 years ago.

Radioactive contamination of the Pacific Ocean:

Sushi, anyone? "There are plenty of fish in the sea."

Reactor 3 is known to be more risky than other reactors because it uses MOX. However, there is or was MOX in the Storage Facility Ponds of reactor building 3 as well.
