As to the workers at the plant. As much as I appreciate what they are doing I must say that they would not have had to do it if it was not for retarded superiors, TEPCO and other ^$%&$%£ that, as usual, messed up big time. On the other hand, when i was leaving Chiba on Tuesday there were people in my company ging to work desipite the approaching cloud (it was when winds have shifted south for 15h or so). For me, its a retarded behaviour and has much to to with mindless dedication to duty.
In case of the plant workers it's different. Those guys are heroes (yet at the same time victims of stupidity and recklessness of other people). Sadly, i doubt any lesson will be learned, and this disaster will only shorten upcoming economical fall of Japan.

They are not victims of stupidity at all. They are heroes in the true sense. People who are prepared to put themselves in potentially life threatening situations to save the lives of others. With full knowledge of the risks they have taken on the responsibility to avert a bigger disaster than has already happened. Nothing can be said that could lessen the sacrifice they are making and it would be inappropriate to suggest otherwise.
Please explain exactly how you believe TEPCO have messed up big time. I personally believe they have done well thus far considering the circumstances. This was a totally unprecendented event. The company in charge I think has little if anything to do with the current situation. All systems worked as they were supposed to except for an unprecented earthquake and tsunami which messed things up big time. I don't think blame can be layed purely on the company and I certainly don't think it will. Thankfully Japan doesn't play the blame games that happen so often in the west.
