Er...hm, here I was thinking it was going to be a lunatic and yet it seems corroborating information is coming in from various sources.

Very interesting, going to have to follow this. I am surprised no news agencies have jumped on it since "nuclear" is a headline grabbing word at the moment.

EDIT: Just to point out that I am talking about the cover-up aspect rather than the seriousness (or not) of the actual incident, if any.

The cover-up is happening at fukushima. Death up 4x, two headed worms, mutated dandelions, mutated tomato plants, piles of dead fish... http://fukushima-diary.com/

As with every crackpot Reddit thread, sort the comments by 'best'. OP doesn't know what he's talking about.

Weren't there some problems with those reactors a few months back that they had to shut them down? But also there was little news about it then.

Great, it's not enough that HN is turning into reddit, now we have to post actual reddit threads.
