Nuclear workers in Japan have finally stemmed the leak in the leaking waste water pit after working round the clock, to crack close to 100,00 eggs in the pit. The low tech solution has now prompted engineers to experiment with several hundred pairs of old tights to repair the rector cooling pump drives.
Engineer Sakamoto Ho said 200 denier tights were very effective. Mr Ho could not comment on whether eggs were free range but noted that the operation took well over four and a half minutes.
