    IF the #4 spent fuel rod pool truly boiled completely dry, this is one of the most important and dangerous events since 3/11/11. Can anyone confirm this actually happened in any way? Can anybody confirm what the pool status is now? This is very urgent.

    Thank you for your precious information. Although your last comment, “the pool was boiling without water”, is bit self contradicting, it shows crucial implication. Fuels do not have to be exposed to air before they become problematic. There is necessary marin between the surface and the heads of fuels. I think real problem is another big earthquake. Whether it is a leakage of pipe lines or cracks of the pool basement, the unit 4 spent fuel pool may not be able to withstand the next big earthquake.
