Well from this moment in time i think i can safely say Japan is screwed. Now they have a problem with there nuclier reactor, if the core meltsdown Japan is screwed. only way to stop the radiation is gallons of concrete, Where are ya gunna get concrete from when thers a tsnami, the radiation will kill possibly alot of people, or cause longterm effects like cancer. This is Hurrific.
