What should have had to be done was like D-day style operation. Instead TEPCO went about it as if it were a routine repair job. Patch up some damaged parts and they can have all reactors in good order. LOL.
While I can understand that no one in the government is a nuclear scientist, TEPCO should have had a liason to relay info 24/7 to whatever government employee was head honcho of the SHTF Department. Hate to say it but Japan just announced to the world that, outside their military, they can’t coordinate the island or its people. Not that we’re any better prepared. With such a small country, one attack, natural or otherwise, could be their demise.
