The truth of this particular report notwithstanding--I don't know--living here in California means we're seeing more such reports all the time. I'm not certain how much to believe them. I have read that the leaking radiation into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima has continued unabated since the disaster, that its total leaked radiation dwarfs Chernobyl now, and that the earliest possible containment is in 2015 and that date might be optimistic. Here is an LA Times article with a link to a Woods Hole FAQ on the subject:

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
