now, when I get up to take a leak in the middle of the night, I don't need a night light anymore. I just yawn and the glow from my mouth provides plenty of light to find the bathroom

January 30th: TEPCO refused to run Tsunami computer nine years before Fukushima

It has just come to light that in 2002, TEPCO was ordered by the Nuclear Regulatory Authority (NRA), Japan's nuclear watchdog organization, to complete a computer simulation of a powerful tsunami hitting the nuclear plant and the effects that would have on the reactors and the surrounding area. TEPCO ignored the order saying “it would take substantial time and expense to carry out a simulation,” despite a report at the time finding that a major tsunami could hit somewhere along the coastal areas from Tohoku to Chiba Prefecture, with a probability of 20 percent over the next 30 years. Then In the spring of 2008, TEPCO conducted a simulation and concluded that tsunami as high as 15.7 meters could hit the Fukushima plant, but they still refused to take action, saying the simulation was based on a hypothetical scenario and that there was no evidence suggesting such powerful tsunami would actually engulf the Tohoku region.
