Basically, if they lose cooling, they've got about one hour. then it very much is like Chernobyl - Core meltdown, containment failure, very ugly.

No, as that reactor is of a different type.

When Chernobyl went out of control, the reaction accelarated making it into something like a little nuke.

A meltdown in that japanese reactor would "only" leave behind a molten pile of radioactive debris.

So yes Three_Mile_Island again seems more plausible.

1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else
