| Topic: The Lesson Of Japans Disaster | |

The lessons learned so far are nothing new. Nuclear power is suicide to us humans but we already knew this. Mother nature ain't no joke and we already knew that too.
Personally, living close to the ocean seems to be a bit dangerous is one I learned so far. Hopefully the Japanese will either learn and share the capability to control these plants in all situations. Since we can't seem to stop trying to kill ourselves with radiation. |

Personally, living close to the ocean seems to be a bit dangerous is one I learned so far. Hopefully the Japanese will either learn and share the capability to control these plants in all situations. Since we can't seem to stop trying to kill ourselves with radiation. Nuclear power is hardly suicide. You might as well say that driving a car is suicide or that eating food is suicide since much more people die every day from automobiles or food poisioning than have died from nuclear power in total since the discovery of nuclear fission!  Living near the ocean is dangerous but so is living in Phoenix. How about that smog and skin cancer due to sun? How about those tornadoes in OK and in the midwest? We live with risk all the time. Fact is that the odds of being hit by lightning are far greater than being killed by nuclear power. So stop the hysteria and panic and be realistic about the dangers we face. If you don't want to live near the shore then that is understandable. But if you decide to lock yourself in a home-made 1950's era fallout shelter and stop going outside to avoid sun exposure or the risk of lightning or automobiles then you will have finally discovered the joy of the paranoia of Howard Hughes. I'd expect that you wear rubber gloves, wash compulsively and have kleenex boxes on your feet to protect against contamination with e. coli & MRSA... Is that you, Howard?!?  |

The lesson to be learned is don't trust corrupt people with nuclear reactors:
Fukushima nuclear plant owner falsified inspection records http://www.theaustralian.com.au/fukushima-nuclear-plant-owner-falsified-inspection-records/story-fn84naht-1226023073141 The second lesson to be learned is, listen to scientists: Fukushima: Mark 1 Nuclear Reactor Design Caused GE Scientist To Quit In Protest (35 years ago) http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/fukushima-mark-nuclear-reactor-design-caused-ge-scientist/story?id=13141287 |

Except - these lessons were already learned BEFORE this disaster. The design flaws which were protested by that GE scientist were already corrected by a retrofit of the Mark I reactors years ago. The TEPCO mismanagement was already aired and prosecuted in Japan so they were not trusted. There are lessons of course. But not those. They had already been learned....

almost forgot.
How about Not building nuclear plants on faulty lines and the most earthquake prone country on the entire planet? Japan has a horrible record with earthquakes, that's why they used to make their houses out of paper and balsa. |

Check out the 869 Sanriku Tsunami....yep...9th century and documented. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/869_Sanriku_earthquake_and_tsunami |

Japan has a horrible record with earthquakes, that's why they used to make their houses out of paper and balsa. Lets see, maybe because most of the Earthquakes in Japan are not strong enough to damage the reactors. I mean this earthquake was only the most powerful in Japans history. It was also the 7th most powerful in the history of the world. |

personaly think that US made this incident with Harp (you can find out more about it with googling HARP)to deflect the mines from events of meadle east specially bahrain and libya. now a real tragedic incident is hppening in bahrain. saudi arabia's army with order of US is killing a lot of bahrainies and all the western medias are silent.
US government do it's best to save it's benefits in meadle east. specially he want prevent Iran to have more active role in ME.for this goal even he is ready to kill japanese ,bahrainies and libians. |

Hanford in Wa. and one on a man-made island just a few feet off the coast in So. Cal |

Funny I said the same thing about terrorism yet we are fighting wars and subjecting ourselves to virtual stripdowns at the air ports, etc etc. We are a nation of rubes. OK. You've posed the situation. What solution do you bring? |

Hello, it is funny that you do not look at the charieties such as the red cross and others even starbucks who have sent 1 million to aid. the giovernment is mostly in the way making sure their territory is not compromised while the people are aided by big corportions setting up phone lines aid in all of the catagories that is needed. quietly with out the press but look close and you will see them. go to nhk.org that tv channel shows the effort. Big government is YOUR friend so how have they helped you? I am open to learn. Just a thought

Wheigh the good this low cost abundant electricity for how many years to the cost. everything has costs, as we move to the future all advances have come with a prioce, doing without to avoid cost has a cost as well. how about loss of life due to the lack of innovation?

When it comes down to it, there could be free power. The Gov. would find a way to tax and make a profit off it. Japan is in some deep doo-doo. Again, everything I've ever had that was stamped "Made in Japan" was junk. |

You've posed the situation. What solution do you bring? However it being to late for that, we have allready created hate for america ten fold by our wars in the middle east we now are forced to watch our back present time. I have to think though that if we turned Bush and Cheney over to the world court and allowed evidence to be presented against them and allowed them to be tried and punished most of the world would forgive us. |

I have to think though that if we turned Bush and Cheney over to the world court and allowed evidence to be presented against them and allowed them to be tried and punished most of the world would forgive us.    911 was investigated as a crime - but it didn't take too much investigation to determine the responsible parties as al-Qaida and BIN LADEN OPENLY TOOK CREDIT FOR THE ATTACK... Again another big militant radical Islamic party to celebrate the killing of thousands of innocent Americans (and a few other nationalities of course). There was never any doubt about who was responsible for the Al-Qaida 911 attacks. The only question was how best to respond to thwart any new attacks. The method chosen as a defense was to rout Al-Qaida and their Taliban hosts and collaborators in Afghanistan and Pakistan and elsewhere and many of those responsible have been captured and killed. Is it a costly war? Certainly. Was it enough? Was it worth it? No one can honestly answer these questions. However it is clear that to do a lesser job would invite more heinous attacks by Al-Qaida, Hezbollah and Hamas etc. on this country. |

However it is clear that to do a lesser job would invite more heinous attacks by Al-Qaida, Hezbollah and Hamas etc. on this country. From the FBI "Most Wanted" page: Usama Bin Laden is wanted in connection with the August 7, 1998, bombings of the United States Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya. These attacks killed over 200 people. In addition, Bin Laden is a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout the world. 9/11 is curiously absent. The list of charges: MURDER OF U.S. NATIONALS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES; CONSPIRACY TO MURDER U.S. NATIONALS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES; ATTACK ON A FEDERAL FACILITY RESULTING IN DEATH Again, no charges of conspiracy or an attack within the US. Source(s): http://www.fbi.gov/wanted/terrorists/ter… 4 years ago Report Abuse Asker's Rating: Asker's Comment: i've never seen anything that even links him to the crime. except that guy dressed up like him taking all the credit. the first osama said he didnt do it http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070918030733AAAN6Da strange isnt it? and of course the topic for a differant thread.

Again, everything I've ever had that was stamped "Made in Japan" was junk. balderdash... Some of the stuff made in japan you can't even see the label... Like most of the internal working parts of your cell phone, american made stereos, entertainment systems and other such electronic devices. Watch as more and more American manufactures are required to shut down or curtail because of lack of parts. The world is a global thing (whether you like it or not). |

Stuff coming out of Japan junk? Toyotas and Hondas are junk? Sony Nintendo? Junk? Parts for samsung and LG come from Japan. Junk? The list goes on and on.

the lesson to be learned is that we are to dependent on foreign and nuclear energy. Therefore lets keep that research steady on alternative energies.
