This thread is dedicated to the memory of the crazy bald dwarf, without whom the DUmp has become a dismal, boring place.

So it turns out that nadinbrzezinski was correct re Fukushima
Unit one did suffer a complete meltdown in 2011
http://www.pennenergy.com/articles/pe/2015/03/tepco-fukushima-nuclear-unit-1-did-melt-down-in-2011-accident.html
<snip>
TEPCO released results from a three-day study in February of the Unit 1 reactor building jointly with the International Research Institute for Nuclear Decommissioning.
TEPCO said the results confirmed previous assumptions of a meltdown.
The utility plans to continue measurement until it gains enough data to conduct a statistical analysis, and said the data gained will help it work out a plan to remove the debris, most likely by robots due to the high amounts of radiation in the reactor.

Let's call it what it was and is - a global coverup. There are folks who don't want you to know and some of them post here.

What coverup?

6. She also said half a million would die.
So not so much.

50. Heh.
Yeah, malaise has spent 127,000+ posts lulling us all into a false sense of security that she's not actually nadinbrzezinski.
This place cracks me the **** up.

24. TEPCO admitted there was a meltdown as early as May 2011
For example:

13:27 24 May 2011
Andy Coghlan, reporter
Owners of the nuclear plant at Fukushima crippled by the earthquake and tsunami admitted today that two more of the six reactor units at the facility probably underwent meltdowns soon after the disaster on 11 March.
TEPCO acknowledged last week that fuel rods in reactor unit 1 probably melted down within as little as 16 hours of the quake.
Today, the company said that there were probably meltdowns in reactor units 2 and 3 as well, after the tsunami destroyed cooling systems needed to prevent meltdown through overheating of fuel rods.
The only thing that changed is for the fact they've conducted their study to use technologies to prove what they already knew.
I'm not a fan of nuclear power nor TEPCO's response, but this is not what I would call a "global cover-up".

30. That will be great for her ego
She'll be even more insufferable!
And how many people have windmills killed in the past month?!

39. And you are dissatisfied that the possibility that she may have been correct may create a large ego?

34. It will be awful for the turdblossoms who attacked her!
Except on DU, where Skinner, Elad, and Earlg could have stopped the cyber-bullying,
instead, they encouraged it by their absence.

37. I don't think she was bullied.
Probably how she characterized push-back of any kind. She claimed to be an expert on anything when someone tried to argue and attacked the other person for their not having her experience in the field.

38. I was not close to her, and I have no allegiances to anyone in this ridiculous battle...
but, yes, she was bullied. Characterized by posts about her in GD that weren't even started by her.
DUmpangelnumbers makes an appearance.

67. And lets forget for a moment about how other posters treated her.
Were you nice to Nadin? How did you personally treat her?

49. She was mercilessly bullied.
I followed her posts and the posters who bullied her from post to post. Yet, alerting was useless because often the juries would rule in favor of the bully, who would move on to her next post. If you had seen the overall crap thrown at her for many months, you would not say that. Some of the bullies have been finally handed their pizza, but many are still here attempting to undermine other posters who put up posts of substance.

44. What exactly was she right about anyway?
The reactor melted down? TEPCO said that just months after the tsunami.
What exactly was this grand prediction that came true?

40. nadin said lots of things about Fukushima...
the vast majority of which were complete horseshit.
That she, maybe, got something right among her myriad bits of nonsense, does not make her "correct re Fukushima".
She's the proverbial blind squirrel.

42. Bully apologists defend their bullying.
Their was no attempt by the bullies (aka assholes) to a meeting of minds or agree to disagree.

68. You can't say that unless you are an expert on how the nuclear energy
industry operates and then lies about how they operate. I don't think you know much about it to offer an opinion.

63. Same people now pat themselves on the back saying that she was not bullied, or only one certain
poster bullied her.
I remember clearly from the Meta forum who her bullies were. It wasn't that far back. They didn't make innocent remarks now and then, they just simply followed her around and personally attacked her every chance they got.
And now she's gone.
"Funny" to see one of her stalkers in this thread though. What a nerve!

I find this very encouraging. We really need Nads to keep the DUmpster running like a well oiled machine.

104. I see her fan club is hard at work, seems some are missing.
Don't worry as soon as they see this thread, they will be in here to mock her too. She turned out to be right about something, seems to drive some here moonbat crazy.

DUmmies used to value birds more than humans, but that was before solar and wind energy started killing them by the hundreds. Now dead Bald Eagles are just a necessary collateral damage.

Good old Sid, pretty much explained it to them. Was promptly set upon by the unwashed.
Sign up here gNads. We'll treat you right.

God ol' nadin. Sure do miss her. I wouldn't call her the "oil" of the DUmp "machinery", though.
She was more like the "sand" in the gears of the DUmp's (non-existent) "sanity". :rotf:
