I realize it says no danger to ppl but doesn't hurt to be careful.

Not dangerous to the public my a**
How could a leak of that magnitude not be detected earlier?

Someones gunna get shat on from a great height for gross negligence me thinks!
Not a very good situation.
Oh, and i wouldnt be surprised if it isnt dangerous to the public. Youd be surprised at the number of different boundaries that would have to get through before becoming anywhere near the outside environment.
If it was dangerous im pretty sure the people working there wouldnt be very happy eh?

This doesn't really sound like the threat of the leak happened from the actual nuke plant, but from a process which they were using to probably make weapons. Sad thing is that it will cast a lot of doubt on their nuke program. I think they should all move to the Candu design (or the new ACR reactors). But then i'm a little biased.
