I knew it too, blaming on everything but the earthquake. because that is the one thing that you cannot prevent against (SPEND HUGE AMOUNTS OF OTHER PEOPLE"S MONEY) and also puts an awful lot of nuke plants in danger including the one on the coast here, Diablo Canyon, which is very similar in design as FUKU and is on at least two and maybe three earthquake faults. And that it doess NOT take a direct hit with the epicenter at the plant to make things go.........

This changes everything about nukes and the argument.
