He didn't elaborate on the reason. No indication he was fired, or ill health. He says he's not working right now. He seems to be in good spirits now as he was at the plant.<br /><br />It could be the "100 millisieverts in 5 years" limit for radiation workers. Even as TEPCO kept 250 millisieverts/5 years special limit for their employees, many subcontractor balked, I heard, and they kept the old standard (which is now the standard again) of 100 mill/5 year for their workers.<br /><br />It sure looks the workers like him who have worked at nuclear power plants, particularly at Fuku I, since before the accident are the ones with an "end-state" vision...arevamirpal::laprimaverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10637620330944911600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-67319830356269022012013-05-05T12:39:23.787-07:002013-05-05T12:39:23.787-07:00So Happy confirms all of our suspicions up until n...So Happy confirms all of our suspicions up until now. We really are toast if Tepco is not somehow removed from this job, and the government not allowed to lord over whoever is in charge.

The original Tokyo Shinbun article doesn't say he doesn't work there any longer - but I'm not following his Twitter account very carefully so you must have seen him say something about leaving. Please let us know if you find out what happened to him with TEPCO. <br /><br />And thanks always for your amazing work - working with two languages and carefully sieving through information. I don't agree with all of your political opinions (like your support for EPA-bashing, let-nuclear-industry-reign-itself-with-no-regulation-whatsoever Ron Paul earlier in 2012 - ok let's not get into that) but aside from that, I feel you are doing such a fantastic job informing all of us and I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate you. Please keep it up! Take good care, kenko ni ki o tsukete, kore kara mo ganbatte kudasai.

Everybody in the hierarchies is caught in a permanent PR mode, putting lipstick on the pig. The only people who can tell it like it is are the people who work there, but most of them don't dare, because they need the job and the money.<br />There is no solution that I can see, because even if the government took direct control of the site, they would still be reliant on the same contractors. Hanford in the US proves that approach ensures the site will be perpetually on the brink of disaster, because that keep the maximum money flowing to the contractors. netudianthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11726679291917155189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-84104302056874283722013-05-05T03:57:19.255-07:002013-05-05T03:57:19.255-07:00Very interesting.
