I heard one report on NPR that sated the Americans usually call the Japanese for expertise on Nuclear Power so who should be calling whom here. Not that we can’t help. At least they didn’t call Iran or N. Korea for help.

Japanese authority is reporting radiation level is currently 100 time above safety levels, and most-likely is higher that. God help the one forced to clean up the mess, sadly the Japan waited to ask for help when they knew they were in trouble, President Obama stated giving help from day one of the nuke problem, but now, putting everyone in more danger. If the cooling pumps only needed power why not use locomotive power as generators, the pumps must be more damage then stated. Bruce E.
