You know these:

Were any fuel rods scattered/lost during the hydrogen explosions?

Heh no.

im not entirely convinced, over on physics review there is a deal of debate about the thermal image photos, especially the ones of reactor 4, the problem being some people think that the thermal camera pictures if overlaid with designs of the reactor spent fuel floor seem to show that the empty reactor is a bigger hotspot than the spent fuel pool. one argument is that the reactor top was open and spent fuel rods have been thrown into the reactor compartment, but there just isn't enough information to tell.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
