Thanks.  I agree but didn't/don't want to drive this Radiation Health
Safety professional's forum too far afield.

I note a new posting protocol that has defeated my junk detector.

God save the Japanese and the Fukushima NPP workers.

But I am struck with the lack of anything useful. For us, or for the public. One outcome I expect from this event is to re-engineer emergency response protocols. One aspect of that is the public information system. If we consciously think about this topic now, there are some of us who might be able to provide useful input to policymakers later
