It is a daunting endeavor to put your life on the line like that once, which is extremely courageous; let alone do it regularly like Enson Inoue has since 2011:
Some of the ex-residents from Fukushima, those lucky enough to have relatives in the US, came to visit us in San Clemente during our crisis with San Onofre. Luckily we prevailed, which is an altogether unlikely victory, but only emboldened the best of us to make progress in meaningful change rather merely petition the State to shut it down--it wouldn't have happened despite being the power plant with the worst safety rating in all of the US following 3 mile island, had it not been for Mitsubishi's over-the-top level of incompetence and Edison's perpetual diffusion of responsibility and greed coming into the limelight so ungraciously.
I may make a post about that whole affair as I wrote it as it happened, dating back to 2007 when I became frighteningly aware of how absurd SONGS and nuclear power as whole really is and the often brushed away externalities.
Right, any chance I can get an invite to the Solarcoin slack? I'd really like to interact there as I'd like to pick the brain of some your most knowledgeable guys there. I've been doing bitcoin stuff since 2010, and just got into the solar industry; no alt has ever called my attention to date but I'm eager to learn about solarcoin.
Sidenote: I have family that are civil engineers and one of them was doing his undergrad with a professor who had been exploring the feasibility of getting Japan on geo-thermal in 2009-11 prior to Fukushima due to the large volcano presence here, from what I recall the research showed that if utilized it either matched or even exceeded the 30% nuclear dependence, but had a lot of bureaucratic redtape and sunk costs that made it unlikely.
