(OT) To Readers of this Blog
It's not that there isn't any more news about the Fukushima I NPP accident or about the Japanese politics or about anything I want to write about. There are plenty.
But since this summer I have had to take care of my health problems (nothing major but nonetheless needing attention) while at the same time doing whatever I can to make ends meet, and I simply have not had a decent enough chunk of time to research and write a post. I'm a slow writer and it often takes several hours to write a single post.
A quick thank-you to people who have kindly donated to this blog since late last year and whom I have failed to thank in person. I'm not doing this for money, but it helps me keep going. Thank you.

M.L. from Levie, France
B.K. from Japan/Germany
A.T. from Severna Park, Maryland
J.K. from Chassell, Michigan
Special thanks to S.L. in Vienna, Austria, who has regularly donated a generous amount for over three and a half years now, from the very beginning of the Fukushima nuclear accident.
And thank you everyone who come to my blog to read my posts. I'll be back soon.

For those who do Twitter, I manage to tweet (as it is short) articles, comments. But those are not limited to the nuclear accident, and most of them are in Japanese (I'm trying to tweet in both Japanese and English). My English-speaking followers must be very frustrated. You could follow me @exskf.
I wish you a quick and complete recovery, Ultraman.
ReplyDeleteWe miss you.
Thaks for the article
ReplyDeleteThank YOU!!! For all that you have done, much more knowledgeable, informative & responsible than nearly all media & so-called 'authorities'/power-wielders around this entire world. This is what the Internet is best for.
ReplyDeleteTHANK you!
Feel free to include how Westerners' responses to topics at hand appear to a Japanese person. We, they, may actually learn something. About ourselves.
ReplyDeleteI would like to know too, Anonymous. Am interested in Japanese people and culture, as my late grandmother had a great appreciation for Oriental art (for instance) in all of it's forms. Her gardens were breathtaking, and clearly inspired from across our shared great ocean.
ReplyDeleteIt is very difficult at best for me to learn anything by what i say, only by what i learn from many wonderful and respectable people, such as LaPrimavera.
Domo arigato gozaimashita, Ultraman. May your spirit see love, fulfillment and joy for ten thousand years, in my humble prayer.
... in the mean time, and in between time, FIGHT IT with all the strength of the intellect of your spirit, including what must be a wide arsenal! I look forward with hope to your upcoming posts.
ReplyDeletecan't wait to your new post..

Who knows, maybe Areva-kun contract has expired.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to you from me as well. I - as, I'm sure, many others - will be anxiously awaiting your return to full health and your blog.

Thinking of you, LaPrimavera.
ReplyDeleteI hope Dr. Yamashita is haunted by smiling faces everywhere he goes.
Hope your health improves. Thank you for your efforts here, and we look forward to future posts.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your insightful comments about the Japanese society and how it interacts with the nuclear industry. Sweden (one of the most reactordense countries in the world) resembles your country in many ways,
ReplyDelete- extremely powerful nuclear industry
- weak democracy due to "zombie" ppl, -> easy to manipulate
Take care, listen to some Chopin e.d /robert
PS: I said it before: I would really like the idea of you writing a book, I have appreciated your thoughts about "things", but first things first :your health!
get well brother
ReplyDeleteSince "O/T" is the undisputed theme here, here's another ..
ReplyDeleteFriedman, once again, 'concept-bombing' the species' common sense:
"It has to stop, not so we "save the planet." The planet will always be here. This is about us."
Surely he was talking about the dumping of reverse osmosis salts .. back into the Mediterranean and the inevitable increase of salinity over time of the Mediterranean? Surely.

I have being hearing about this blank ATM card for a while and i never really paid any interest to it because of my doubts. Until one day i discovered a hacking group called dark web, they are really good at what they are doing. Back to the point, I inquired about The Blank ATM Card. If it works or even Exist. They told me Yes and that its a card programmed for random money withdraws without being noticed and can also be used for free online purchases of any kind. This was shocking and i still had my doubts. Then i gave it a try and asked for the card and agreed to their terms and conditions. Hoping and praying . Few days later i received my card and tried with the closest ATM machine close to me, It worked like magic. I was able to withdraw up to $5,000. This was unbelievable and the happiest day of my life with my Family. So far i have being able to withdraw up to $50,000 without any stress of being caught. I don’t know why i am posting this here, i just felt this might help those of us in need of financial stability. email Mr Rex via rexwalkerhacker@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI am sure a lot of us are still unaware of the recent development of the Blank ATM card.. An ATM card that can change your financial status within few days. With this Blank ATM card, you can withdraw between $5,000-$50,000 daily from any ATM machine in the world. There is no risk of getting caught by any form of security if you followed the instructions properly. The Blank ATM card is also sophisticated due to the fact that the card has its own security making your transaction very safe and untraceable.
