Japan Nuclear Disaster Caps Decades of Faked Reports

By Jason Clenfield - Mar 18, 2011 4:52 AM ET

The unfolding disaster at the Fukushima nuclear plant follows decades of falsified safety reports, fatal accidents and underestimated earthquake risk in Japan’s atomic power industry.


I think the Black Swan label to this nuclear accident is totally inappropriate.

Quote:
. . .Back-up diesel generators that might have averted the disaster were positioned in a basement, where they were overwhelmed by waves.. . .
Now really, which rocket scientist came up with that idea and didn't think "tsunami"?
