Well I personally wouldn't want to stick around if things were getting
hot. But I have to say, it makes me think back to Chernobyl, and the men
that braved the dangers to try and stem that disaster. I'm sure not all of
them really understood what the risks where, but equally sure some did.

That last bunch of 50 in the Japanese plant must be some of the bravest and
most selfless people on earth.
