More on Fukushima! I find the article intriguing because it calls for action, not just retorting crisis facts with a journalistic distance and..."unconcern". I find the descriptions of the technical issues with the leak unclear, though, with little analysis to back up statements such as the Japanese government being incapable of handling the problem. And I'm still unclear on the specific cause of this 60 day doomsday mark. Is it only because Tepco is going to be removing those dangerous fuel rods then? I'm curious about these procedures more in depth.
