100 year battle awaits Fukushima


- groundwater underneath Fukushima is 10,000 times the normal level of radiation

- US is recruiting citizens to work on site at Fukushima for extra pay

apparently to try & seal the disaster such as the "Chernobyl option"
which didn't work in the long run as Chernobyl is still leaking.
And worse, Fukushima is close to the ocean only feet above the water table,
seal it as tight as you want, nuclear waste runs through the soil, into the groundwater
and will end up in the ocean causing a never ending disaster.
