To: null and void

Thanks for bringing a voice of sanity to the hype. And lets not even begin to discuss the natural sources of radioactivity in ocean beds. Oh and that big nuclear explosion happening continuously 93 million miles or so from here. Of course I will not live long enough to appreciate the danger from the Fukashima fallout because I live in Denver - so the daily radioactivity I get from the altitude and the natural radioactive sources around me will get me long before anything else..

We do get skin cancer from the sun but it’s a trade off because we also get heat and light that form the basis of life on earth. Incompetent mismanagement and contempt for public safety inherent in the nuclear power industry are not the basis of life on earth - we can do without them.

Natural sources of radiation in the ocean beds are generally not a problem because of their distance from us. Natural sources do contribute minute amounts of risk to human health but they are unavoidable and accepted. Naturally occurring sources of radiation do not excuse the gross incompetence, lies and harm caused by the nuclear power industry and the government propping it up.

Children have been photographed playing on the beaches near Fukushima because the government keeps insisting that all is well - the power company and government are anxious to make it seem like everything is ok. This reminds me of the photos of the smouldering tower of the Chernobyl nuke plant that showed children playing sports in a grassy field in the foreground.

At present, the situation at Fukushima is so bad that even TEPCO is calling it an emergency.
