Its pretty sad to hear that. I thought everything I had read so far said that they were protecting workers, and that they were limiting their exposure to radiation. I guess we really dont know whats going on over there.

They must've got more people because they came to the understanding that the situation is beyond the ability of 50. Also I think the gov't would've pushed to have as many people as possible clean this up as quickly as possible not only for the obvious but also to save face on an international scale. If they had the infrastructure I'm sure they would be telling all the workers there families would be in for a big package so give it your all, but given that most lived and worked in the area's worst hit, it seems like a logistical mess (let alone emotional mess).

And that is what I was reading from teh people who are involved. A lot of them have lost everything, and even lost whatever friends and family they did have to the Tsunami. So they already feel as if they have nothing left to live for so why not commit to something that has real meaning to it. Saving Japan. Those who do still have family still lost everything they owned so they are doing it to ensure that their families will at least have something when this is all over with. Sacrificing for ones family is a human tradition that dates back hundreds of years, and is done by just about every culture on the globe.

From what I have been able to read on the internet, and gather from their movements at this plant they are already making plans to bury this stuff with a few feet of concrete, and set a perimeter around this plant that will pretty much be in affect for at least the next 100-200 years. I believe any hopes of getting this under control towards the clean up stage are long gone. They have been working hard to seal up any ground leakage so that once it is sealed in concrete that will be it.
