[ Community -> Update ]
As you all probably already heard there is problems with Japan's nuclear plant after the huge earthquake hit their land. We have the potential to see some real life nuclear stuff like radiation and get a post apoc feeling from the current events.
I'm not going to link to any specific news item but just to tell you to keep updated on the events in Japan with your favorite news source.
A radiation cloud is supposedly going to come over California so if I come back with another finger you will know why.
What are your guys thoughts on the nuclear problem in Japan? |

Stock up on iodene tablets. And call that local maniac who has a functioning Fallout shelter. Alternatively buy a shipping container, line it with lead paint, dig a big hole, etc. etc. etc.
This is part of a strategy to take over ze world. That's why japanese have advanced robotics, so they can kill americans over the internet FPS style.
Also, dragons. |

I was once told by a wise adventurer in life that an old 50's lead lined fridge would survive a nuclear blast, so I imagine just abit of fallout wouldn't hurt you. |

It would be a race between asphyxiation and radiation poisoning. Another bet won.  |

Actually I doubt anything especially dangerous will happen'. A real meltdown prolly wont occur, only a partial one at worst.
I don't quite get what the fuss is about... it's obvios that the quake will have killed more than the radiation, so chill. Just as with the bird flu I bet than within a month a lot of ppl are going to feel a tad stupid.. |

I had hoped "drowning" would be the ultimate vanquisher.  |

Well then drink water filtered through moss. The naturally high content of iodine in the moss will give you the edge over the slowly ghoulifiying masses. :survival: |

Nope. That myth was busted. It also was done in New Vegas a gag. the body was not alive when you opened the fridge.
Lead can be useful to ward off radiation. the epicenter of a nuclear blast can't be defended against. your shelter has to be at least 1 to 5 miles away. your shelter would also need to be underground for maybe a few files. Your shelter would need springs to with stand the shaking.
when that energy passes through the ground to your fridge, it would smash the fridge and you. mostly you would be with the force of a 747 at maxspeed, per square inch of your body.
you need absorbers between your fridge and the earth. you aren't going to die a hole in time. would be a massive operation. best shot is to find natural geological formations that you can travel deep down into and then setup your radiation shelter with the shock absorbers. |

If you can't get Iodine straight, Poops, consider buying kelp pills for a large concentration. They're going to be going quick, but it'll be worth buying some to stave off the cancer |

Yeah, like he said. Drink lead paint and coat your coat with iodine, it's the only way to roll in the post-apocapclyptic waistland niggas. Oh, and stock up on fishsticks and shrimp and shit, if you like that sort of thing, pref. dated before the quake. And stay away from mushrooms and berries.
Last I heard we're getting closer to a full-on meltdown buttfuck bonanza every second. Rescue workers getting sick on rads, new fires and explosions ravaging the compound, the idea of recovery abandoned. If it's not overblown media hysteria, then we're talking a contamination of the ocean and a high dose of rads hitting the American West-Coast pronto. |

According to a news article I read but am too lazy to link to, radiation has been found in spinach and milk up to 65 miles away from the leaking power plant in amounts that the Japanese government says are unsafe for human consumption.
While that's bad, it's pretty vague. The way it's worded, it could either be just a tad over the legal limit and thus still relatively harmless, or there could be roving bands of mutated spinach monsters terrorizing the countryside. |

It's nice to see they take education seriously in Japan. |

Spinach and milk. Two things Japaneses consume in great quantity. Gather ye supply, the radiated hordes are coming and they want dairy.
Also I remember when this one kid had diarrhea during Washington State History class in 10th grade. It smelled terrible and he just sat in his chair and didn't leave at the end of class, thereby singling himself as the poo-er. A bold plan which he stuck to with great determination, even after I think he realized the unintended consequence. Still, I'd like to hear alternate game plans for minimizing the shame of pooping all over yourself in a very public place. |
