#1 If it was happening in the US, the greenies would be demanding all reactors permanently shut down immediately and summary executions. But it's China, Jake. (crickets...)

#3 Isn't it racist to point out that its Chinese nuclear reactors?

#5 Why is American intelligence warning them at all?

It isn't for China's benefit. It is to alert the rest of the world publicly.

#11 Just keep raising the safety standards and none of that pesky health/safety issues are going to shut down the plant. Win Win, and if some of the locals start growing funny appendages or move on to a new career in concrete funeral wear, its a plus...

#12 *Bollocks* "..the problem is a 'fission gas leak'."
Which is what, pray tell?
"...Fission gas is a radioactive byproduct of nuclear fission where heavy atoms are split into lighter ones..."
Okay, that is a singularly uninformative example of newspaperese technobabble.

Have very efficient solution:

Concentrate it in each institution."
