"But, researchers insist that the water doesn't pose any threat to the local fishing industry." Sure, we all know this is hogwash. Having been domiciled in Japan for several years now I can tell you that this is not the case. TEPCO has so much power here it is not funny.

The Japanese way, like in many places, is to put a gloss over tragedies and disasters, especially seeing that no one wants to take the fall. The food is contaminated, and will be so long after we are dead. I hope this piece will do reach enough people who are ignorant about what is going on.

Wonderful write up.
