Things are not getting better in Japan.

-- Comments that criticize any class of people as a whole, especially when based on an attribute they don't have control over
-- Comments that explicitly call for violence

I am a fan of ENENews also. I made (well, rather took an existing gadget and tweaked it) an iGoogle gadget which allows one to read several nuke related RSS feeds from one place. The only flaw is that RSS and/or the gadget has a refresh delay when new articles are published. Here is a link to the gadget which can be added to iGoogle or embedded in web pages: http://www.google.com/ig/directory?type=gadgets&url=hosting.gmodules.com/ig/gadgets/file/105808929885265338096/radnews.xml
ReplyDeleteThere has been nearly a total news blackout about this in the Western media to protect the nuclear power industry who sold the Japanese people on this dangerous, unreliable, garbage equipment. To say that they've been "sold a bill of goods" would be an understatement of epic proportions.
