I am amazed that the truth got out - TEPCO and some parts of the government seemed so determined to prevent people from knowing about this. Wonder how the shell shocked populace will react. Prayers for the people of Japan.
And now for some good nuke news...

“TOKYO — After 34 years, the United States is expected to resume construction of nuclear reactors by the end of the year, and Toshiba will export turbine equipment for the reactors to the U.S. early next month, it was learned Saturday...
Following the meltdowns at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear-power plant, the NRC placed priority on safety assessments for existing nuclear-power plants, delaying the screening of new projects.
No construction on reactors has been carried out in the United States since January 1978.”
34 years of paralyzing superstition! Ain’t modern society grand?
