As I heard only one building collapsed over there, they moved all the people living closer than 20km. Cesium radiation is 8 times bigger than normal.
However no one knows what will happen when another afterquakes will come. They can be that strong as the main was.

edit: btw they found 649 dead... :(

even if the blast would be Chzernobyl-scale, i doubt it is as bad. Russians kept the whole thing as secret, and this japanese tragedy is for all to see, and international help is on the way..

I currently work in the nuclear power industry and have been watching the events in Japan closely. Overall the entire event is tragic, but I feel the nuclear aspect is going to very minor in the grand scheme of the entire event. I only hope that when the final report comes out that many of the actions taken were very conservative and not neccesaily required that the media doesn't jump on it as a big cover up.

I have been working with nuclear power on and off for almost 20 years and I am completely confident in our facilities in the US. I would be happy to discuss or answer any questions people may have.
