Read the history of the Tokaimura nuclear accident. A friend of mine in
Japan who has connections to the nuclear industry says he gets the
feeling the place was staffed by ex-cons and high school dropouts.

Because of Asian customs regarding honor and saving face, not all there
is as it first seems.  The popularity of manga style books, even for
businessmen,
does not always say good things about literacy there.  Low statistics on
sexual assault in Japan have also been criticized as lacking credibility
due to the way
victims are treated.  Japan is headed for deep trouble as they have
recently begun to lose net workers, net male population - and most
recently,
net total population, during the first six months of this year ( two
years ahead of predicted schedule).

Actually, that trend may be the scariest of all in the developed world -
they build up debts while the collective birth rate plunges, eliminating
the potential people who would pay down the national debts.

Oops! Sorry! This is far afield from heat engine fluids!

It's gonna get interesting...........
