And amazingly, this is the biggest Power Company in Asia, and one of Japans' richest corporations. Does ANYONE out there have confidence that this mob - who evidently have no training in disasters and radiation management - can rectify this unprecedented problem?

The Americans are doing a wonderful job, true professionals - and all the media talk about some Japanese wanting them out of Okinawa etc is all but gone now.

Rest in Peace, little boy. Let's all hope the awful cowards who did this get a sentence comparable to say, a corporate criminal in Japan. ie at least 20 years in the slammer. But I am seriously worried they will only get 5 or 10 years. I find myself asking again: Who is looking after the children?

The Japanese government, in doing this, has shown that tens of thousands of their citizens have been exposed to life-endangering radiation. Will they admit this is the question?
I agree with cricky - the French and Americans MUST be paid to come in and take over this mess - heck, pay them $Billions - it is now very obvious the Japanese cannot manage nuclear energy, and the crises that it causes.

The Japanese robots are doing all the important stuff like "dancing" on stages, bowing, and wheeling bentos out to old people in nursing homes.

They should not rebuild there - it is simply too dangerous. Make a memorial, and the citizens should all move away to other cities and towns.

At least they are (relatively) honest compared to Aussie cabbies. Get in a cab in Sydney and the guy will do a few loops of the city before taking you where you want to go! However, with GPS nowadays there is zero excuse for cabbies getting "lost".

This is awful, RIP to the cop just doing his job. But, doesn't this kind of thing happen in every city in the USA daily? IMO - the cops should have set the attack dogs on the scum hanging around after the heinous crime. No loss.

If you stay away from dreadful places like Strawberry Cones or Pizza Hut, you can usually avoid the ridiculous toppings. Many "Italian Style" restaurants here make great pizza as it should be - simple with 2 or 3 toppings only - and delicious!
