Very bad indeed.

But I have to wonder, if that carefulness was just lip service. I doubt that though due to the nature of their culture, but you never know. I just wonder if there was something going on behind the scenes that we'll hear about years from now, that is allowing this to happen.

Then again, sometimes **** just happens, and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

I wonder how this will afect reactor designs in the fututre.... if this allows for a future for Nuclear reactors at all.

I grew up in the shadow of a nuc plant, and still live within 20 miles of it. They always said perry was super safe, but I'm having my doubts now. Course the worst quake we've ever had was like a 3 something...
