which is why you see otherwise rational people building nuclear reactors on the coast of a seismically active country.

this is the price we pay for deciding not to stick with looking for tasty roots within easy walking distance as our main choice for dinner and then dying of starvation at 27 because our teeth are bad.

it's not like there won't be plenty of blame to go around but unless you want to go back to living in an open plan cave, get over the "how could they have built it there?" crap. we all do that. the odds of that specific nuclear plant getting hit by a tsunami was miniscule. if they had built a 50 foot flood wall around it there's still the chance of a 51 foot tsunami next year.
Oh, fk off!! You are not God. This ain't Mexico, Russia, or China. Take that lame gargage above, and put it in your dark spaces.
