10. Who is leaving out anything?
Edited on Fri Apr-15-11 05:19 AM by FBaggins
The guy bemoaning how hard the neighbor's life is going to get because of his missing toe...

... when the toe was lost in an industrial accident that cost him his leg.

For example here we are more than a month into the crisis and relatives are still asking for someone to look for the bodies of their loved ones in the area.

There are 15,000 people still missing "more than a month" later. You think they're all near the reactors?

With that as a benchmark it is going to be far easier to tease out data that lets us identify both the financial and human costs that are to be debited against the use of fissioning radioactive toxins to boil water.

Riiight. Well, I suppose that shows your normal "this is just as bad as Chernobyl" analysis. So any cost greater than the Kobe quake gets laid at the feet of the reactors, right?
