Reference: Stewart Farber's post on Sat 17 Mar 2012 18:41:50, forwarding a
40 page report that was just issued by the "Carnegie Endowment for Peace"
entitled:"Why Fukushima Was Preventable". The report chastises (TEPCO), and
Japan's regulator, the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) for not
taking preventive measures to mitigate a threat that occurs only every 1000
years!!!! Wow! Shouldn't they also have made the reactors asteroid-collision
and nuclear-weapon proof (considering North Korea)????? How many hydro- or
coal-fired plants could survive the two threats faced by Fukushima??
