Disturbing sense of Déjà Vu continues to permeate the information coming in about Japan’s Fukushima plant nuclear disaster. In spite of disturbing revelations, we’re being told not to worry. On March 20, 2011, Energy Secretary Steven Chu made the rounds on American talk shows, stating that people in the U.S. are “in no danger” and as far as Japan is concerned, “we'll see what comes.” Being lulled into a false sense of security usually results in a rude awakening. The truth may not be comforting, but is definitely past due.

    • Thanks for posting Vierotchka, I haven't seen much on this, and this covers lots of historical details. Especially interested in: "Film director Hitomi Kamanaka has been exploring this issue through a series of documentary films. Her most recent film, Ashes to Honey, is the latest chapter in her journey." I will be following her more now that I am aware of her work. Thanks!

    • Earth quakes, floods and lack of proper flat land led to the problem. Japan is in the most volitile area of the world for such things. It was only a matter of time. Our problem would be quite different and handled.
