Japan Reactor Radiation,Lipitor & Coumadin; Don't Drink the Water

Water is the source of all life. But since humans started using water to flush toilets, one could predict that eventually people would die from thirst. Eventually water will become so laced with residual fecal , chemical and radiation parts that it will be unusable for man or beast. How many people take Lipitor or Coumadin or Valium or the countless other well advertised drugs? When those drugs leave the body they enter the atmosphere. The ground water or oceans becomes tainted and evaporation sends the toxins around the planet. Today Japan's Fukushima nuclear reactor was just bumped up to the highest international level of severity. It now matches the dead space of the 1986 Chernobyl reactor in Russia. That radiation also ends up in the seas and ground water. And from there it gets into plants, animals and the atmosphere. My own speculation is that more people have read and followed the books of religion than have followed the disciplines of hygiene.The Bible, Koran , Torah, teachings of Buddha and other religious publications makes no mention of guarding against pollution. It's not in the commandments. Looking at supposed paintings of the writers of biblical parables, they look more like poster boys for a-before-a-bath example. A clean life is better than a holy life. Whatever "holy"means.

French Fishermen Finally Forced To Face Reality

French fishermen are caught .They are straddling a dock of rising diesel fuel price and an away- drifting boat of elusive, depleted fishing stocks. The fishermen are protesting the 30% surge in the price of diesel in the past 4 months. They want the price rolled back so they can go further out to sea for the fish that they have depleted from their coastal waters.

Their anger has taken the form of port blockades, sea traffic disruption and acts of vandalism on land. The government has offered a limited subsidy but the fishermen say it's not enough. And so the natural world and its laws are brought into sharp focus. I.E. the using of a diminishing resource to pursue a frgile resource has its limits.

Many fishermen will probably go out of business. And well they should. Their business model and philosophy was flawed from the launch. Fishing for dinner is one thing. But the wholesale slaughter of worldwide fish stocks to a mere 20% of their former numbers is a sin. Let the monkeys eat more snails.
