Reply #76: A radiation leak is different than a contamination leak.

[rhett o rick]

Radiation is energy like an x-ray. Contamination is material that is giving off radiation like water containing radioactive material. We know they are dumping water into the plant and it has to go somewhere, eventually some goes to the sea. A radiation leak would mean part of the cladding steel, lead and or concrete, isnt stopping the radiation.
Forgive me but I only know enough to get myself in trouble. But if the molten core burns thru the vessel and concrete containment, it probably wouldnt stop burning until it hits the water table and then explode. If that were eminent, I would hope they would be taking some drastic actions.
