“One that has killed upward of 4000 people, but what are folks paranoid about — the nuclear plant.” Could this possibly be because 1) We can’t go back and restore life to those already dead, and 2) because if just one of these reactors fully dissolves it has the potential to destroy what, 40,000, maybe 4,000,000 more lives (maybe more) on the main island of Japan?

Frankly it never made sense to me how those tsunami-damaged generators managed to run for an hour before they quit… then I read the Greg Palast article making the rounds and I’m forced to suspect a different reason for that problem since the explanation his article suggests makes a lot more sense. If an internal combustion engine is damaged by external events or environment in most cases it will not run, or it will start and run for a few seconds and self-destruct. Until I hear a reasonable explanation of what that damage was I won’t buy the tsunami damage story because it isn’t credible- I can think of a possible circumstance that makes it credible but until I hear it offered up by authorities I won’t disclose it for fear the words become part of the tsunami of propaganda being peddled by the nuclear industry.
