Looks like its was just a regular explosion,
if you can call an explosion at a Nuc plant regular.

They also mentioned that the death toll may skyrocket due to all the small villages that are on the coast (got hit by the tsunami). On top of that they said that whole trains are missing, and they really pack those things to full capacity.

the plant is now down right :S ?

I thought the reactor was not leaking, it was just overheating..

although it was a bit scary that levels got above 1000x the normal readings.

My prayers go out to all affected by this. Im glad that everyone is stepping in to help, I wish I could do something to help.

I've talked to a few people over there (luckily they're ok!) and the biggest care right now and for awhile will be those nuclear plants... our thoughts and prayers (and our rescue money) go out to everyone over there dealing with this tragedy!
