Finding Reliable Information About Fukushima

It's not easy finding information that appears reliable and is not clouded in an excess of verbiage or 'gee whiz' graphics. Pro Publica has compiled a reading list that covers various angles of the tragedy

One recommendation is The Guardian, which has a simple chart that shows the status of all the reactors. It's a Flash file so I can't reproduce it here. But I can summarize it:

Reactor 1 - Partial core meltdown
Reactor 2 - Potential meltdown feared
Reactor 3 - Blast, fire, radiation leak
Reactor 4 - Fire; water levels dropping
Reactor 5 - Heat rising in spent fuel pool
Reactor 6 - Heat rising in spent fuel pool.

While I have tried to follow the situation, I must confess that I did not know that there were six reactors at risk. There is a lot more I don't know, but there seems to be more news about the nuclear industry than the efforts being made to help those whose life is at risk.
