9,079 deaths confirmed, 12,782 missing, about 318,213 people living at 2,060 shelters.
The ever rising Japanese body count climbs, which, we all know, from pictures of waves of wood, metal, cars, slammed six kilometers inland, thanks to a wall of water, traveling the speed of a jet, slammed into their loves, the landfall and nuclear plants, on a fine winter’s day, after a 9.0 earth movement.
Disturbing and realigning 2 earth faults, pushing the rising sun island 8 feet to the west, and unbalancing the earth’s axis, and its course through space, March 11th.
We, still typing, walking, riding our bikes, doing our morning yoga, still breathing, lived through it. While those pulled out to sea, smothered under the waves, will never be found, since we are not looking for them, meters below the sea.
Many humans and animals will never be included in the death count, found, cremated or buried, for the simple fact they were caught in a tsunami, and carried out to sea, or are quickly decomposing beneath tons of earthquake debris, which will take months to move. Left undisturbed in their violently spawned tombs.
A triad of terror from nature and man: oceanic tsunami, violent earth movement and radioactive cellular, molecular degeneration from foolishly placed nuclear reactors.
Nature and man-made triumvirate of terror combo, with one-third of the event, preventable, caused by multi-national power companies, and greedy politicians, who promised the nuclear reactors can survive a 7.0 earthquake, foolishly constructing them atop an area of known, moving tectonic plates.
Obama, Japanese emperors, and power company directors, all lying, swearing it is safe energy, safe ground, and in the face of this massive destructive radiation event, Obama states the US will move forward to construct even more of these human nuclear threats.
The hubris of their actions will, one day, cause more death and destruction, as earthquakes and tsunamis grow in size, as they have over the past 15 years.
California senators began hearings + testimony, today, from various nuclear energy experts and plant officials, on safety and disaster preparedness plans, for Southern California's San Onofre plant, below Fallbrook, 60 miles north of San Diego, and the Diablo Canyon nuclear facility, near San Luis Obispo. The politicians and nuclear plant builders aren’t prophets, so they cannot predict what will happen. We all sense, one day the earth will shake and waves will claim the dirt hills and beaches, as it has for millions of years.
A 2008 NRC report revealed that battery powering safety systems at San Onofre had not worked for four years. Hmm, do you think there are any more “systems” that are not working in the The San Onofre plant, located near the Rose Canyon Fault, Elsinore Fault, Newport Inglewood Fault, and San Clemente Fault? Concerns about seismic safety have plagued San Onofre for decades. In Southern California, there are an estimated 10,000 earthquakes per year.
I was on the freeway, the Saturday morning in 2009, after the Indonesian earthquake and tsunami event, during a Tsunami warning, driving by the San Onofre Nuclear Plant, heading down to Oceanside,California. It was frightening, for a moment, when I saw the nuclear reactor, a few hundred yards away from the Jeep.
I will be heading down to Temecula, Ca., visiting my niece, who is working with her thoroughbred, Hercules, training for her riding events. She and my sister, with horses in tow, are driving there now, from Gig Harbor.
The ranch is 25.7 miles away from the nuclear reactor. My plan is to stay in Fallbrook, when I go down. My car will have a three day emergency food supply, a bottle of potassium iodide pills, a sangean emergency radio, and Joe Bonamassa, flicking my R&B strings, with his sexy guitar. This was one of my favorite concerts in London, with Joe and Eric Clapton: http://youtu.be/VEEfDdJyxPY
Love Fallbrook and Lake Elsinore, and the beaches which are an easy ride from Fallbrook. Looking forward to a favorite coffee house, in the early morning, and spending some time around the barbeque grill, at sunset, with some old friends, and their avocados, at their place in the hills.
Future. I plan a trip, that is going to happen in my future, and think about those who lost theirs, a few days ago, on Japanese beaches and hillsides, as they watched the edge of destruction slamming in.
If you want to see how close you are to one of the reactors, here’s the link from Mother Jones, created from the NRC’s documentation.
