It's not really all that different, except that over there there is not as much crazy screaming in the media to whip people up into a frenzy. Japanese people seem to have this kind of resigned frustration at politicians ability to skirt the issue, but they figure it's better to be orderly and work together under weak leadership than freak out and go crazy because they don't know what is going on.
There was a woman at my favorite coffee shop talking about buying iodine. She actually said to me, word for word, "What if it melts through the earth and, like, comes out the other side? Is that a possibility?". I and the man next to her, who used to work in a nuclear power plant, kept out mouths shut until she left the porch.

The correct answer is "Then it would come out in the ocean off the coast of Brazil, so it'll all be fine."
I think it was originally two lanes and now it's one lane with a bunch of gravel down the side. Also, different perspectives, those trees on the left aren't there.

Actually, irradiated water was an immensely popular homeopathic cure in the early 20th century. Then, people figured out that it dissolved your bones, made your hair fall out and made you pale and nauseous, and for some odd reason you'd die shortly after developing the strangest lumps around your throat and Adam's Apple. Or after your jaw fell off.
They also thought it was a good idea to snort carbolic acid. Those guys were super smart.
Carlill v. Carbolic Smoke Ball Company. Nice reference.
Are we really much smarter, though? As a nation, we take a lot of things like Zicam, Airborne, and such that are really about as safe and effective as the smoke ball.
“I’m not going to believe the government because I don’t think only spinach from Ibaraki will be affected,†she said.
