Editor's Comment: There is a saying that some of you may already know. It goes something like, those who don't learn from their mistakes are doomed to repeat them. It is sad that money trumps the welfare of life and well being. And as if by some strange and bizarre coincidence there was a 7.3 quake and small tsunami today Nov. 21, 2016 (Nov. 22 in Japan) and oddly enough the cooling system for one of the nuclear plants was down for 90 minutes after the quake but was able to be restarted. But just reinforces my point of not learning from a devastating event like the Fukushima disaster of 2016. Japan's Nuclear Regulation Authority approved another reactor to remain operational for longer than the 40 years maximum, introduced after the 2011 Fukushima disaster, media reported Wednesday.
