Anyway, I've just done a quick calculation on that No 3 reactor that may be going into meltdown. It's the China Syndrome, except almost in reverse; if it does overheat and start plunging through the earth's core I reckon it will emerge in Ossy. I wonder if that will be a good thing or a bad thing?

Via Church which would leave a 200% improvement

good job it wont burn through to burnley you wouldnt be able to tell if the mutations were radiation related or genetic

I thought it was Padiham that suffered with that problem(genetic mutations).

If The China Syndrome could actually happen, a melting core from Fukushima would end up about 1,000 miles east-south-east of Buenos Aires, 1,300 miles north east of The Falklands. The only ones that could go through to Australia are in the southwest US states, and they'd get the southwest of Oz.

It's a moot exercise, anyway - A melting core would stop at the centre of the earth - it was only gravity directing it downwards, and once it's at the centre of the earth, there's no direction for it to go.

That sounds plausible if you subscribe to the theory that the earth has a solid/molten core.
Maybe it doesn't, and is hollow- (as per Admiral Byrd who explored both polar regions in the late 40s)

Blimey! And I though I'd done a serious scientific exercise. I shall have to get my piece of string out again and double-check my antipodes.
