Pete, do you have a citation or source for the allegation that "the US and the UK are pulling out their rescue teams from Japan"? I can't find anything saying that is true. And its known that the USS Ronald Reagan has repositioned itself a couple times to avoid the worst effects of radiation from the plants - yes, it may have left Japanese waters, which only run 12-200 miles depending on your political ruler, but the carrier is still actively engaged in rescue and assistance work in Japan regardless of the location.

Can your firm up your sources, or perhaps admit that this is just rumor, and incorrect rumor at that?
