Now Japanese government is going into the same insanity. They are holding a marathon relay race in Fukushima city. At this moment when this article is being written, teenage runners are running. The radiation level is as high as mandatory evacuating area in Chernobyl. Thousands of people called the administrators to stop the race but it ended up started. Runners are 13 to 31 years old. Most of them are teenagers...To attend at the race, they made the girls sign on the contract. “Even if I have health problem from this race, I will not sue the promoter (= Japanese government)”
This racecourse is shut down to prevent race horse from being irradiated. Those teenage runners are treated lower than race horse for Japanese government.
And how far is the site this race was held at from the disaster site?

I sometimes receive questions from people living out of Japan.
“I must go to Japan soon. Is it safe ? What should I do ?”
These are my answers.
- Japan is not safe.
- Don’t go to Chiba or Saitama or further north. Tokyo is the boarder.
- Don’t trust geiger counter.
- Make the stay as short as possible.
- Do not drink tap water and milk.
- Don’t eat Japanese food. Eat only imported food. (Never eat Sushi)
- Wear a mask when you have to go out.
- Narita airport is in Chiba,where is in hot spot. Know that you will be exposed to an extent.
- Don’t touch soil,grass,and the rain.
- Don’t sit down outside ,especially when it’s windy.
- Pollen of 50000~70000 Bq/ Kg Cs will fly from Feb to April. Do not come to Japan then.

I don't trust the main stream media in Japan any more than the one here. Perhaps less. Thanks for the link to the diary site. I was reading one and found this:

That's messed up. Why would the japanese government organize this? Why would this even be allowed? Neither party has anything to gain from this. Very strange.edit on 14-11-2011 by targeting because: (no reason given)
