I just want to thank you for your efforts on this subject and for continuing them in spite of the flack that you took. And thanks to Mark for allowing this. I think we went through this before when you were posting some good off topic stuff......and Mark addressed it then so it is no real surprise that it has been allowed. I honestly think that there has been a concerted and coordinated push to suppress information regarding this......and its not that I don't understand that. I mean.....things just went silent for a few days there. I appreciate your digging. I don't have time to do it these days. I also realize that some are belittling this as scare tactics and others are "cheering this as fuel for the market". In 2008 there was a similar effort to "quell" the fear and calm the public and I hope that this situation is resolved in a much more favorable manner for the good of us all. It's a trajedy. Its one thing when its a few states away or a few countries away. How would I feel in the Atlanta area if there were four reactors on the verge of spilling their guts in Savannah or Birmingham or Chattanooga. Would anybody be able to talk me out of my fear when I'm 120-150 miles away? Yea, sure....we're all going to die....but how many of us want to suffer through months and months of total agony and misery before we do? So how is the guy in Tokyo supposed to feel when he looks at his three and six year old children? What about the worker who must spend a great deal of his time outside? Japan as a whole is about the size of California. Honshu I guess is quite a bit smaller than California. How many Californians would be relaxed and worry free if there were four reactors at critical stages in their home state? The silence and the downplaying of its effect on economies and markets is beginning to remind me of something........"The problem is well contained".....and we all know how that ended.
Hi Iblayz, thank you very much, great to hear from you.
I deeply appreciate all your eloquently-stated comments, support, thoughtfulness, caring, insight, and analysis.
I also thank Mark for his openness and support both in the past and during the present.
Keep up your good work.
Good luck on all of your trades.
Best,
Bob
