Hi Folks, Forgive me for saying this as the Japanese have had to worst deal dealt to them and we can only but look on from a distance at their poor fortune. But.. is it just me or does it appear ridiculous helicopters trying to water bomb those reactors to cool them down? if these thing are in the first stages of a melt down it would be like using a fire extinguisher to put out a full blown bushfire. I really hope they get this under control not only for Japan but also as radioactive material that has blown east out over the Pacific might have a chance to contaminate our seafood. Cheers,CS Rob
