As serious and for some heart-breaking as this is, a friend sent me a small bit of comic relief, so in the interest of a short decompression, I hope you take this in the spirit it's meant......
"Why haven't the Fukushima explosions woken up Gojira? Where is he anyway? Typical monster; never around when you need him."
"No, we need Mothra. She could fly everyone out while Gamera gobbles up the fires."
(And if you steal my plot line for the next really bad retro sci-fi flic, I will sic Gyaos on you.)
Hope that makes one or two of you smile for a moment.
