Quote History Quoted:
No, Chernobyl is worse. Fukushima is being way overhyped by the media and the anti nuke crowd.

I'm as pro nuke as it gets and I don't agree with you at all. Now that the new safe confinement is in place, the risk of contamination leaving the Chernobyl site are way way down. The concern before was the reactor head would fall and stir up a cloud of dust. Admittidly there is a lot of stuff spread around the country side, but it's not going anywhere.
Fukushima has a huge water management problem. Dilution may be the solution to pollution, but I still don't want to be dumping a bunch of CS in the ocean. They can't keep the water out, and it's transporting contaminates out of the buildings. If it wasn't for that, I could care less about the melted cores. Can up the buildings and let it sit for a hundred years or so. The only way they are ever going to be able to retrieve that fuel is if the come up with a way to full the buildings with water or jello or something to provide shielding w/o it leaking out.
