[quote:ehecatl:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzM1Nzc4MTIyXzZCMUJGQTM1] [quote:Citizenperth:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzM1Nzc1ODcyX0VCRDdFRDIy] [quote:Anonymous Coward 31837896:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzM1Nzc1NzgwXzg5MUREN0ZD] [b]Read all about it: How Kan-do attitude averted the meltdown of Japan[/b] [color=darkred]The first word of the title — Tōden, the Japanese abbreviation of Tokyo Electric Power Co., or Tepco, the company that owns and operates the ill-fated plant — makes it clear that ex-Prime Minister Kan believes Tepco to be at the root of the accident and the concomitant damage it continues to cause as well. As the true nature of the disaster unfolded in the weeks and months following the earthquake and tsunami, Kan came to see that no one would be safe in Japan until all of the country’s nuclear plants were shut down and decommissioned. How and why he came to this conclusion is the paramount theme of this book.[/color] http://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2013/01/26/commentary/read-all-about-it-how-kan-do-attitude-averted-the-meltdown-of-japan/#.UQQQ0_ISEg8 Should be interesting to read! [/quote] smoking gun "“I was at Tepco headquarters at 6 a.m. on the 15th when it was reported that a loud boom had been heard coming from Reactor No. 2; and at roughly the same time, Reactor No. 4 experienced a meltdown. … I began to think that we might be facing the worst-case scenario.”" yer right though, a book worthy of the read ;) there was no fuel in #4.. right.. wrong.. the prime minister at the time just confirmed it.... how does something melt down when there is nothing to melt.. wrong..... [/quote] Well, the reactor might have been empty, but how else could they explain to the world damage that looked as if it were caused by a miniature-yield nuclear bomb. [/quote]
