I know I was just watching some footage and the TV bint was asking some 'expert' could there be anything more done to design buildings to prevent them from collapse in the event of a tsunami  Banghead Banghead Banghead

I really do hate some of these after event questions - futile  noooo:

The nuclear reactor thing though is a hoooge concern  scared2:

Why is it so important for sooooooooo many  reporters and 'correspondents' to actually travel out to Japan , to stand as close as possible to a failing nuclear reactor or on top of a car, which is on top of a roof which is at the top of a valley   noooo:

They seem to have armies of them they send to report the same thing from different locations  noooo:

I quite agree Miss D. They were filming, and one Japanese bloke "politely said he objected to us filming the destruction of his country", so out of decency, they should have stopped, and at least not shown that footage. But they shown it, and him

A few before after shots here , just drag your mouse across right to left

And why do they keep harping on about any casualties to Brits over there - it's a bit "We're alright Jack, screw the rest of you".
