Jack-
That photo certainly looks awful. I've just noticed the artwork on what remains of the outside of the reactor building, the lovingly painted clouds on a blue background...
But it's what we can't see, the radiation, that's truly terrifying and the uncertainty of what will happen next.
(Note to Mudcat moderators: feel free to delete the following sentence)
There has to be a special hell for those who designed this nuclear power plant complex and argued that it would never endanger the environment or the public.
I forget where this old slogan came from:
"The risks are all acceptable! Acceptable to who?"
