Disaster hits Japan

[Uli]

Workers are close to restoring power to cooling systems at a quake-hit Japanese nuclear power plant, officials say.

Engineers connected a cable through which they hope to supply electricity to part of the Fukushima Daiichi plant.

The earthquake and tsunami it triggered crippled the plant's cooling systems, and some radiation has leaked.

Food products from the Fukushima prefecture now have been banned from sale after radioactive contamination was found in milk and spinach.

Must admit these lyrics sent a shiver down my spine during that last awseome T&V song at Bradford...

"Earthquakes, flood, bodies in the mud.
Poison clouds, a cast of thousands"

[Luddite Joe]

I thought exactly the same thing at Bristol, as well as
"British weapons to foreign (Libyan) places"

And now the Yanks are using thier 'Tomahawk Cruise'.....again.

Hmm had Libiya got any oil?

[Gabumon]
