    No, Japan did not move 8 feet to the east

    I keep seeing this claim come up: the entire island of Honshu moved 8 feet to the east due to the recent earthquake. Maybe somebody else has already debunked this, but if not here's why I don't believe it. 1) If the entire island had moved 8 feet, wouldn't the earthquake have been equally...

    Japan and the blow to global fission

    Forgive me if this topic has been broached ad nauseum already. I've been trying to follow the power plant crisis in Japan. I understand a little. What I haven't gleaned yet is this: Were these power plants in low lying areas that were directly affected by the surge of sea-water? Or was it...

    Merged nuclear power safe?

    Many people on this forum believe nuclear power to be safe, clean, efficient energy. If it is done right and built well, a nuclear power plant should stand well against what is thrown at it. Others believe there is no such thing as safe nuclear. Nuclear power plants are simply accidents...

    Japan earthquake + tsunami + nuclear problems

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-12720219 How about keeping a track of the nuclear power plant proceedings here. I do have to wonder why the Japanese were not prepared for this when other countries have warned them about this and know how to build better precautionary measures...

    Japanese minister of agriculture hangs self

    Japanese minister hangs self You never see western ministers commiting harakiri when a scandal concerning themself is brewing. One would think that perhaps the Japanese take honor much more seriously. On the other hand, if they did, how could they let themselves become involved in something...
