''Hot Particles'' Present in Tokyo - West Coast USA - Nowhere to Run

If Arnie Gunderson is correct on the time scale, another twelve months before the melted fuel cools down enough to be handled, then I think ''hot particles'' might be a problem, not just for the West Coast, but for the Northern Hemisphere as a whole.


Original estimates of xenon and krypton releases remain the same, but a TEPCO recalculation shows dramatic increases in the release of hot particles. This confirms the results of air filter monitoring by independent scientists. Fairewinds' Arnie Gundersen explains how hot particles may react in mammals while escaping traditional detection. Reports of a metallic taste in the mouth, such as those now being reported in Japan and on the west coast, are a telltale sign of radiation exposure.

90 minute documentary on Chernobyl. And what a scary 90 minutes it is.

The Russian scientists and firefighters who fought the Chernobyl fire reported a "metallic taste" in their mouth. That taste was from radioactive iodine. (It is well known that all iodine has a metallic taste.)

For example, Colonel Grebeniouk - who led the Russian troops in charge of controlling the situation - said:

There was a metallic taste in our mouths, an acidity. They say radiation has no taste. It was only later we realized it was the taste of radioactive iodine.
