Just a reminder it aint over and alot of interesting info in this article. Kind of a touch of poetic justice here, we drop 2 atom bombs on Japan and 67 yrs later their Nuke plant reactors are nuking us.:

It would be an interesting PhD subject for someone to study fear or Japanese radiation with demographic/socio-political factors such as intelligence, age, political leanings, etc. I'm guessing they would find some pretty strong positive or negative links.

The government is planning on moving operations from tokyo it another "big one" hits which is seems mroe and more likely. Their are plants dying all over, rice contaminated, whole mess and it's still not even close to being contained. They were going to cover it in boron but never got around to it. Hell who knows what's going on the way the governemnt's been lying. I read the other day were they now think two meltdowns occurred. Northern part of Japan may be uninhabitable soon.

Default Fukushima

I don't know why no one over here in the US seems to be worried about this.

Yes,I know about all of those also, but Japan is ongoing and has been for what, five months now and no end in sight. Now they are burning the radiactive waste in some places and sending more stuff into the air. I don't think all that radiactive water they are dumping into the ocean is good either.I dont care how big the ocean is or how it dilutes it.I can't believe that there will not be any bad affects from that, just like the corexit won't hurt the people in the gulf area.

The amounts of radiation involved in US "contamination" are so ridiculously minuscule that only hypochondriacs, conspiracy hobbyists, or the truly naive are concerned.

The largest nuclear meltdown in history by far from Japan should be the biggest news story on the nightly news world wide but in this era of total corporate capture you just get garbage and disinformation. Don't know what to do about it or how to put a stop to it.
