Quick and dirty math time! (In which I reserve the right to use terrbile sources and or make idiotic mistakes.) 450 tons of contaminated water is 900,000,000 pounds. At 8.34 pounds be gallon, that's 107,914 gallons of contaminated water. PER DAY!!!!!! A US gallon of water is .0037854 cubic meters. 107,914 gallons is 408.5 cubic meters. The Pacific ocean is approximately 660,000,000 cubic kilometers in volume. http://ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/global/etopo1_ocean_volumes.html A cubic kilometer is a billion cubic meters. 660,000,000 cubic kilometers is 660 quadrillion cubic meters. 660,000,000,000,000,000 cubic meters / 408.5 cubic meters per day means that drat reactor is going to spit out an oceans worth of contaminated water every 1,615,667,000,000,000 days. Or every 4.42 billion years. Basically, enjoy getting cancer from that filet o' fish, sheeple.

Just out of curiosity, how long would it take for the materials from the reactor to lose their radiation anyways?

What do you mean "lose"? Because there's different isotopes with different half lives. According to wikipedia, the top three contaminants are Iodine-131, Cs-134, Cs-137. Iodine-131 has a half-life of 8 days. Cs-134 is 2 years and a few weeks, and Cs-137 is 30 years days. Others are Ba-140 (13 days), Cs-136 (13 days), La-140 (1.6 days) Cs-137 and Sr-90 are the primary causes of long-term radiation emissions from Chernobyl, according to wikipedia, but it is has not been sufficiently measured at Fukushima. It has been found in soil and water samples, but not in wildlife samples. totalnewbie has a new favorite as of 23:31 on Aug 30, 2013 |

 What the fuckity gently caress is going on here. What the gently caress has to be wrong with your head that you decide it is a good idea to "prove" how much you love and trust each other by putting a gun to someone's head. And then putting it in a publicly viewable place  No, they aren't just trying to "prove" it to themselves, for some reason they feel the need to "prove" it to their friends and family. This is how people die in firearms related accidents.

Goosed it. posted:This image was made by a poster in GBS after the tsunami when it came out that people in California were scrambling for iodine pills. Hilarious that it's still making the rounds. That is amazing. The fact that a bunch of these dumb things posted on FB came from these forums makes me feel all squishy inside

FrozenVent posted:You're off by three orders of magnitudes Ahh crap. Knew I'd be dumb somewhere. Apparently only made the mistake while typing it out and not the subsequent calculations, so the rest of the bullshit math still stands. Edit - also just noticed that I typed "pounds be gallon" instead of "per gallon." What the Hell? My fingers do not listen to my brain any more.

As someone with a handicap that isn't readily observable, this scares the poo poo out of me. I always feel self-conscious when I use handicap spots to begin with, despite my need, but I guess I'm not paranoid!

 If he was an actual friend, I would've called him out on it, but I don't know him very well, he was just a groomsman at a wedding I was a bridesmaid at. I'm not even sure what he actually means by this. "10 people like this"

It may be a reference to Tony Abbott, Australian Prime Minister candidate, who stated in a radio interview he wasn't in support of changing marriage as gay marriage is just "the fad of the day".

Obama simply has dark, dirty genes that make him unfit to lead. Because Mitt is descended from decent folk who fought against discrimination, he's the purebred genetically superior choice!

My dad helped construct nuclear weapons in the Cold War therefore I should be trusted with the nation's nuclear armament.

Yeah, reading up on George Romney shows him to be a pretty alright guy. All that macro does is to illustrate how far the apple fell from the tree.
