The Ultimate Sacrifice - Japan Disaster

[Frogs!]

the damage to at least 1 of the nuclear reactors has reached a point where the next step may involve nuclear plant workers taking heroic acts.

it may have reached the point where if there is any chance to contain this, the nuclear plant workers may be called in to sacrifice their lives.

i have no doubt in my mind that these workers will oblige if asked to do so.

if this happened here in the states, i'm not sure i'd be as confident our workers will do the same thing.

i'm not hating, that's just how i feel about it.

flame away.

People sacrifice their lives. Some would volunteer no doubt. Look at what's happened to the rescue workers from 9/11...

i'm not downplaying their heroics but i don't think it was a given that they were sacrificing their lives.

it was risky but rescue missions have a much higher success rate than failure in terms of the actual rescuers surviving it.

this mission in japan is a death sentence.

[!! AI-Holmes!!]

Didn't the Japs. sacrificed when they became kamikazes during the invasion of Pearl Harbor? Time to step up to bat again..

this mission in japan is a death warrant.

'tis true.

[Frogs!]

'tis true.

i'm a few thousand miles away from japan and don't even know these ppl that have been affected but every time i see what's happened on the news, i feel like i want to cry.

it's really affecting me.

True dat, is quite sad to see all the footage about their disaster, They're still having a few quakes here and there, it must be pure hell to those living there..

yeah.

i can't imagine what immediately goes into one's head once you are asked to do such a thing.

pride? fear? excitement?

i'd be lying if i said i would have said yes.

Only difference is that the 9/11 workers were assured that there is no chemical danger in the rubble, which turned out to not be true

But these workers are pretty much called in and told that theres a big chance that they might die, from radiation poisening, a slow and horrible death

No disaster. No hero.
