your comparison of the two disasters, the horizon oil spill vs. the japan nuclear reactors, is, in my opinion, idiotic. to whit: the scale, magnitude, and long term consequences are nowhere NEAR the same. take a look at the data for chernobyl, for example. further, what are the death tolls for the horizon spill vs. the japanese nuclear ALREADY.

further, this thread was NOT about the merits of nuclear vs. oil.

over and out.

Mainstream news media are pretty much silent on the Gulf problems. You need to look at local sources to see what's really going on. Bottom line: it's really bad and will be for a long time.
