Just fall off the turnip truck? ....or maybe you just got back from your trip to Saturn's moon and missed everything for the last 2 years? :youarehere1: Actually the real Translation was; "a quasi Cold Shut-Down" "a state of Cold Shut-Down"!

[…] The elevated 137Cs levels covered an area of around 150 000 km2 (south of 38°N and west of 147° E). [...] The contribution of 137Cs, 129I and 3H released from the damaged Fukushima NPP to the sea has been remarkable, as it has considerably influenced their concentrations in surface seawater as well as in the water column of the NW Pacific Ocean.
