They're still waiting on the plumber's union to agree to a contract to restore the cooling pipes...

Just kidding of course. I hope that they catch a break here and get that thing safely contained VERY soon!

The Japanese are amazing engineers, look at those Tokyo buildings swaying feet in the earthquake, but not falling down. Which is why it is astounding, with their care and redundancy and history of excellence, that we are facing three reactor meltdowns because there isn't electricity to run the cooling. And the backup generators don't work, because they didn't think of raising them above disaster flood level.
