Pardon me if don't don the cheerleader outfit.
Chris Busby gets by on a shoestring, Mochizuki from Fuku Diary is now a refugee living on donations. But Arnie Gundersen gets raves and plaudits here for his Fuku Lite message.
I need to stop whining.

So, Bobby1, your complaint is that because some people (who are neither as experienced, as knowledgeable, nor as qualified as Arnie Gundersen) are not making money, then Arnie Gundersen is to be condemned for not being poor? And do you characterise his messages as "fuku lite" because he sticks to the facts and doesn't scream and froth at the mouth? I can understand prefering to read people who present a message you agree with in a format you like, but what is to be gained by making derogatory comments about other people who are on the same side?

Froth at the mouth? Busby has done much scientific work over many years about the dangers of low-dose radiation. How many times have you heard Arnie quote him? Mochizuku has done invaluable work with his translations and searches of information. These people provide real value.
Gundersen is just a talking head. But apparently there is a personality cult here that wants to crown him Emperor or something. He's fine for what he is, but the fan-club aspect of him I find to be a distraction and a waste of time.

There's been some controversy about the quality and truth of Busby's work. I honestly see Arnie Gunderson as a hero. Still, we all have our own opinions about things like this, and I think most people wouldn't hold their individual opinions if they didn't think they were right. I understand what you are saying, and thank you for saying it. I just disagree.

doesn't sound like whining to me. i must be careful to not cast stones, but i am hopeful if he makes a lot of money, i hope he uses it wisely, maybe shares it to do some good for victims from this.

I haven't listened to the interview yet, but can someone please post the name of the book, and where to get it? ("Gundersen book #1 on Japan’s science bestseller list") Thanks.

…umm….a science best seller in Japan.
I guess… the composite of his word and works will be the definitive.
Does it project the actual situation?..
I can apperciate the social awareness Mr. Gundersen brings.
I do not agree with him in the science arena.

"It's very comforting to do what the government says and not really think for yourself"
Arnie, you just said a mouthful. The Japanese are some of the best sheep in the world
