Japan is going to be fucked up for quite a while. Even if there is no significant radiation damage, where are they going to get the power to run the country?
Only about 12% of the generating capacity is damaged, both nuclear and other.
Bizzarely, the country has two different systems, one in the east and one in the west, that are incompatible
Former Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich (D) is suing the Congressional Cafeteria for biting into an olive pit in his sandwich.
I think he won too.
Things I could have sued over in my life but didn’t:
-Getting bitten by someone’s dog as a kid
-Falling out of tree (twice!)
-Getting hit in the head by a bat in full swing,
(the stupid kid somehow didn’t hear me behind him)
CGar, Tell me where you’re going to find a deck where you are served fresh wonderful fritatta with a beer & a shot in your tent, and can pay your rent 6 mos. late??

I didn’t like those. But I saw a gorgeous pair of antique revolving bookcases that were about 10 grand each.
You might have even been able to buy that pair $10,000 dollar book cases that dude was selling in the forum two years ago!
I could’ve sued for the piece of metal left in my stomach last year during surgery. Damn! Could’ve had realllly nice bookcases.
A large number of the Japanese electronics companies now do their manufacturing in China or various Southeast Asian countries.

Huh?
Right. NOWHERE!
rob – Almost all electronics are going to be scarce.
dibs – I thought scrod was the past tense of screw.
It’s the reactor that was down for repairs that’s now at highest risk because the spent rods weren’t immersed & had begun heating up.
