I remember Rumy making that quote. I remember it because I had just been reading a book on consciousness and the topic had been covered. At first I thought, Rumy, how astute. But I also remember at the time thinking that within the context of his overall soc/pol positions that he really had no idea what he was talking about.

News on evacs

When the embassies are hightailing out of somewhere that is usually a good indication that things have gotten bad.


The wind is moving at a speed of about two to three meters per second, said the official with the Japan Meteorological Agency who is based in Fukushima Prefecture, the location of three troubled reactors.

The French embassy in Tokyo warned in an 0100 GMT advisory that a low level of radioactive wind could reach Tokyo in about 10 hours, advising its citizens to leave the city.

The German embassy issued a "general advisory" urging all Germans and their relatives to register on a "crisis list" and to consider leaving Japan, especially those with families.

It only makes sense for every country to try and get their nationals out. Even without the nuclear fallout threat, the Japanese infrastructure and rescue & aid services are taxed far beyond their limits. They are completely and utterly overwhelmed trying to deal with their own people, let alone having to worry about "guests" in their country. In addition, as supplies dwindle and the spirit and general calm being displayed by the Japanese begin to frey (and mark my words, they will... under those conditions, the animalistic nature of humanity will rear its head), a stranger in Japan becomes an unwitting target in the fight for basic human needs, like food, water and shelter.

No, the more people that they can, and should, get out of Japan, the better it is for those who have no choice but to remain.

Foreign Firms Launch Japan Evacuation Plans
By Nicola Leske
FRANKFURT, March 15 | Tue Mar 15, 2011 2:26pm EDT
www.reuters.com...


(Reuters) - Foreign firms set up evacuation plans in Tokyo and parts of northern Japan on Tuesday in a bid to distance staff from a quake-crippled nuclear plant while keeping their businesses running.

The planned exodus was already under way for several companies and involved both expats and Japanese workers. Others were still monitoring events. Some reported employees were opting to stay put despite concerns about their safety.

Yeah I saw that earlier. I cannot imagine how bad it's gonna be over each successive day.

The governments are starting to do bailouts of the banks preemptively it seems also.

This is only Tuesday so we have quite a week ahead of us.

China Is First To Evacuate Citizens From Japan
Mar 15, 2011 2:06PM
content.usatoday.com...


China's embassy in Japan today called for an orderly evacuation of Chinese nationals from the areas worst hit by the earthquake, tsunami and damage to nuclear reactors, China's state-run Xinhua news agency reports.

The embassy was organizing the evacuation "due to the seriousness of and uncertainty surrounding the accident at the Fukushima nuclear plant at present," Xinhua says.

"We hope our compatriots in the worst-hit disaster areas remain calm, listen to instructions, understand and cooperate with the evacuation operation," the embassy said.

I know this will end bad..

The fed pumped billions into the market already to try to pad the numbers, I am wondering how long they can make it look like everything is ok market wise, and not to mention the value of our dollar, when I the Japanese come to us with their bonds..

Its really hard to predict but I had to guess, it safe to say this will really effect our economy, you may not see it in the markets at first because the so called regulations are padding the numbers or something.

If tokyo, is given evac orders well more then the economy will become the Crisis.

This is a reminder of how insignificant we are on this planet, and when earth wants to get pissed, it gets pissed. Did this humble the people of Earth? It does not look like it humbled the idiots on tv in America.

Japan City Isn't Taking Chances On Radiation
By PHRED DVORAK
MARCH 15, 2011, 1:48 P.M. ET
online.wsj.com...



The city of Iwaki, on the coast of northeastern Japan, struggled through the earthquake, then the tsunami. Now it has an even more pressing worry: radiation.

"We're talking about radioactive substances after all," says Iwaki public-relations officer Takahiro Kuboki. When you take into account how winds and rain can spread radiation over longer distances, "even areas that are outside the 18-mile radius may get affected."

Iwaki was warning its residents about radioactive rain on Tuesday.

Maybe all cruise ships in the area could evacuate those closest to the reactors, then bring more of them in from all around the world. Have the military and aid ships, with all hands, stocking the cruise ships with necessities. Have the coast guard aboard the cruise ships to maintain records of passengers and assist with logistics. They could comfortably remain aboard these fleets of ships until further planning could take place. It would get them out of harms way for at least until the worst is over. I don't know how many would be helped by the amount of cruise ships. But it would be significant I would think.

Carnival has 85 ships with a capacity of 1,583,521. They own about 50% of total capacity.

That would take care of over 3,000,000

I just googled the American stock indices.

They are all showing negative signs right now.

Also apparently the "stock advice gurus" are all saying "Sell sell sell" right now also.

There are some suggestions to buy into oil/natural gas/coal however.
Figures.

Dang, seems quicker and cheaper to just get 1/4 billion Chinese to build a bridge as quickly, cheaply and as safely as possible. Then just walk to the mainland...only half joking, sadly.

Already the talks that Tokyo markets will not open tomorrow are in CNBC, personally, we are heading for a major collapse, as Japan economy is very much link globally regardless of what the media and governments are sugar coating.

Still I can not shake the felling that half of Japan will become a waste land with massive migration of their population.
