Just as they increasingly lose control of the situation, trained manpower becomes a problem. In the manner that they have been dealing with Fukushima, TEPCO and the Japanese Govt. will increasingly lose the manpower educated to deal with the situation. "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive."

It is just criminal the way they have used this guy.

The successor, according to a person who worked with him, is another brilliant man.

"has fallen ... will resign"

Pretty dangerous job being irradiated day in day out. You dont rise after you fall with Fukushima AIDS. When you have six reactors, always one of them is being refueled or opened for some kind of service. Daichii 'scrap thrown into reactor' -documentation is pretty good proof... Like reactor 4 which was 311 "in revision" - to dig broken/fallen bits from inside the reactor.

This irradiation is called "REVISION".

Revision - The Nukelubed ... ... call your irradiation a REVISION!

IPPNW (International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War) -.org got German Gundremmingen NPP revision data. They are 500x bigger than during operation: peak: 1470 kBq/m³, normal 3 kBq/m³. IPPNW in has demanded exact numbers how much noble gas radiation is released when NPP is closed down for refueling. The answer is - 1000 above normal!

Here is their recent 'revision' table revealed: http://preparator.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/revision-rads.jpg?w=700&h=438

This radiation is all vented through the stacks - like today in Fukushima. These meltdown fukusisters will aal be "in revision" next 1000 years puffing 1000x higher than normal effluent via the STACKS...

What is the TEPCO life-re-cycle time ? 15 years?

" The Nukelubed "

Why would you be calling us the nuke lubed ??

Equating us with TEPCO shareholders ??

You straddle a strange fence. By choice ??

Masao Yoshida was , it seem , a courageous man who continue to inject salt water in the damaged reactors, despite the opposition of Tepco and government.
Respect, I hope he will survive.

Anon 12:03, you are a completely insane troll. FACT: stacks at Fuku are nonfunctional.
