Dear Mike,

Thank you for your kind offer.  Two friends are staying with the family members that they were visiting this week in Tokyo and my lovely wife's son and his family are staying with in-laws near Haneda. 

Be well, careful and safe.  The idea to store some extra water as mentioned above was well thought through.

Respectfully,

Robert

 Edit:  Family members flew out of Haneda and will land shortly and be home later this evening.  And Mike, please keep one sharp eye on that reactor and trust your instincts.

Sympathies etc to those in peril!

Live near the sea, glad i'm in an elevated location - all joking apart - it looks quite grim!

The reactor blast is seriously worrying.

Yes it is. AFAIK the wind is blowing the radioactive fall out to the sea, which might be an advantage under the circumstances. 

Re the reactor etc   --   the uk are about to venture down that route

GET REAL

To be fair, the UK is not sitting on a fault line. Not really comparable.

probably not, but quakes although minor do strike the uk and also accidents do happen!

I would agree its a cheap energy source in the short term!

This is not the place to debate this aspect of life, i do however fully support the idea of donations to help

Finally!!! This topic is gonna change into a bla bla discussion. Was expecting Lee to say something or am I a bit to early? Can't be that complicated is it? Let's help those poor people...

I would suggest you donate directly to the Japanese Red Cross - that is what I have done. You should be able to do it via your national red cross site.As stated before, this is the most cost effective way of giving.

tonight pray for japan.
