Twitter Stream with updates from Japan

Bump And also I vote for Raist being a site moderator seems hes doing a better job keeping people updated on whats going on.

I`d vote too ^^

I think Raist already has a good job, not that I know him but he said something indirectly about it. His employer ought to give him a big pay raise because he is valuable 'property'.
SE would be smart to try to lure him away.

Kyodo: Decision to change mandatory decontamination level based on advice from domestic nuclear experts & IAEA.

Japan gov't task force loosens level for mandatory decontamination. Until now 6,000cpm. New reg: 100,000cpm.

Mixed feelings about this move. Been seeing them shift their exposure limits a lot the last couple of days. Afraid it may make people a bit uneasy in the world markets--Some Spinach was found with like 20x the limit of contamination at one farm. Ibaraki prefect isn't going to be able to export squat as it is already....long term is gonna be rough. Some "experts" are already expecting it to be up to a 5 year recovery.

Yeah.. may be the first time we see them loose their cool during this crisis. Still amazed at how well they've handled themselves...wouldn't see it in the US.

Edit: BLAARGG! everytime I think I'm gonna get something new... winds up being recycled news. Guess it's going to be quiet on the news channels until the sun comes up over there. Time to run some errands I guess.

I have been really impressed with the way things are being handled by the people there so inspiring to see people come together like that in this day in age. Because of they way there handling it too has shown in how fast there actually recovering too. Your so right if same situation happened in US or Canada we would be fighting with each other trying to protect our interests not others. Hopefully rest of world has been watching situation in Japan and take away the type of cooperation there and maybe this world can be better place for it.

Japan has always been a country that support each other. Japan will rise from this recover and move on albeit this will take alot of time, money, and support but in the end they will be stronger then they are now. We as a nation should take their bravery, and unity and apply it to our own country.
