In a situation such as the one taking place in Japan, the "authorities" always begin by telling folks that there is nothing to worry about, that safety measures are being taken, etc. This is officialese for "it's time to head for the hills." Never did like the idea of nuclear power, or offshore drilling, or sending tankers through troubled waters, especially if the Captain is hammered out of his skull. Come to think of it, and you probably know more about this than we do, didn't some numbnuts once want to place a nuclear power plant on the San Andreas Fault.
