Title: Discovery, Fukushima nuclear accident
Source: BBC World Service Programmes
Date: March 6, 2012

It’s nearly a year (11 March 2011) since Japan was struck by a huge earthquake and Tsunami.

Clouds of radioactive fall out from damaged nuclear reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi power station spread across heavily populated areas – many kilometres from the plant.

The government and power company TEPCO have been heavily criticised for not telling the local population soon enough about what was going on [...] deep mistrust developed towards government or TEPCO pronouncements on the nuclear incident. [...]

“There’s uncertainty, especially over whether cesium levels in rice may increase in the future [...] It’s possible this could become more concentrated in rice.”

    We should all know by now, there's only a few days left before the first year anniversary of the Fukushima catastrophe. We must not leave it to the MSM to define this incident. We need to define this event! So, let's start thinking of how you’d like to see this event being memorialized by future generations, as well as our own. This is the just the beginning of what will be decades of hard truth, coming-down upon us all. We are the vanguard of this truth and must hold-fast to its power. We have only a few days left. Let's try to think-up and do something that lights-up the internet with a million candles and prayers. Within the next twenty-four hours, we should have everyone's input on this.

    I was thinking that everyone should light four candles to mark this sad occasion. The four candles would be symbolic of the four reactors. Amongst other aspects, they can be representative of ideas/concepts that we can all agree too; such as love, peace, truth and life. They can also represent the four directions of the world that will be devastated by this catastrophe. This idea of four elements is fundamental to the transfer of esoteric knowledge and is easily grasped by all.

    This memorial effort can go a long way towards seeing the light, with all of your input and support. Announcements that everyone will be doing this should also be made on other sites, as well.

    Detectors-a-tick’n! We need to move fast on this…

    If it (Cesium 137/134) is water soluble, it would make sense that it has been able to travel so far, or at least more sense.
