Nuke Plant Info via Mother Jones, More [updtd]

Good thread going on here. That one has stopped now so go here. (Change made April 5.)

Inside the core.

Skepchick talks to her dad, a nuclear engineer. Audio. (First minutes are biographical, then a simple explanation of what a nuke plant is, then they get to the Fukushima plant.)

All Things Nuclear. (Recommended by this scientist.)

Update: Seemingly very knowledgeable person here.

It all seems built around the lack of  electricity. I don't see why they couldn't get replacement generators in there pretty quick.

Update: Union of Concerned Scientists.
