Japan should have requested assistance with cooling the reactors when this whole feasco began on Friday. Saturday at the latest. I could see ships anchored off shore pumping in seawater to help keep things cool, but now there is little anyone can do.

Anyone within a few miles of this plant now risks radiation poisoning that could surely kill them. I am not so sure that China is laughing since their shores are right across from Japan. The fallout will blow which ever way the wind carries it, and that will surely be to China & Korea on given days. This disaster is far from overwith. Covering the vessels will only do so much, but radioactive material will still leak into the soil and contaminate the surrounding area to some degree. This will leave the chances of rain water leaching contamination into the sea, and eventually into drinking water over a very large area. I am not sure what can be done at this point, but there will be a very involved consortium of some kind brought together to find a reasonable solution that the entire world order will be happy with. At least Chernobyl was landlocked, and posed little threat to surrounding water supplies. This is a seriously scary scinario.
