Submission + - Australia says Buckleys (globalresearch.ca)

akayani writes: Yoichi Shimatsu reviews what to do about waste from Fukushima... "A more logical choice for overseas storage is in the sparsely populated countries that supply uranium ore to Japan, particularly Australia and Canada. As exporters of uranium, Canberra and Ottawa are ultimately responsible for storage of the nuclear waste under the legal principle of industrial recovery." Do you know the phrase 'Buckley's Chance Mate'... it means zip, zero, no way, won't happen, your dreaming, stop playing with yourself... so little chance that there is less than none at all!

You know we here at the CIA listen to Slashdot too. We have your IP, your email list, your banking details...

Honestly who cares. What will the CIA learn from ordinary people that they don't already know?

A far great concern is Facebook's ruthless approach to deleting accounts if you become involved in political comment. I'm on my 4th FB profile thanks to these deletes, the last one they claimed was blocked because I wasn't me even though they had my credit card details and student email. This was what they required to 'consider' restoring the account, no guarantee...

Hi,

Thanks for providing this information. At this time, we cannot verify the ownership of the account. Please reply to this email with a digital image of a government-issued ID (e.g., driver's license, passport). If possible, save the file in JPEG format. Make sure the following information is clear:

Rest assured that we will permanently delete your ID from our servers once we have used it to verify the authenticity of your account. Note that we will not be able to process your request unless you send in proper identification. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thanks,

Why the fuck would Facebook need from me 'Government Issued Photo ID'. It is the sussest request I have ever seen.

All fine until you look a bit deeper.

1. What saved the reactors was the foundations what is causing the issues in a lack of maintenance based on the fact that some were past their close down day. (I'm sure we all spend money on maintenance just before we take a car to the junk yard too.

2. MOX is being used in reactors that were not specifically designed for MOX at great risk.

3. For all the drama of nuclear power in Japan it only produces a mere 30% of the nations supply.
