    This article was a paragrapn in today’s NYT. Tried to under-report? This whole disaster has been unreported. General Electric reactors – and what news outlets do they own?
    And TEPCO still in charge of this mess trying to maintain its viability as a company on the Tokyo stock exchange?
    The Japanese government needs an enema in one side and the other. Holy crap, how STUPID. TEPCO should have been nationalized long ago, for the safety of the PLANET because these numbnut, lying cheating bastards don’t seem to care about humans as this article shows. I’m so thoroughly disgusted by this incompentent, insufficient reaction to the radioacivity spewing out of the TEPCO plants that I just want to throttle…
