can it really be that they make so obviously false studies ? i cannot believe this. they are not that stupid.
by Edano 8/14/2011 5:14:33 PM

@Edano Yamashita is that stupid and he is in charge. He was trying to tell people how great lower exposures were and the 100msv. He is getting sued by some people for his earlier comments because they were so false and dangerous. I don't know who appointed him to this program and to the university but I think it is part of the whole cover up and denial program. He seems to be a total lapdog to the nuke industry and his views are convenient to them

by Edano 8/14/2011 5:38:59 PM

Is the mayor of Fukushima more worried about economic development than people's safety? Yes, thank you for post this. Wow.

@elainekirk i found masses of yamashitas in google. that's why i needed his forename.
by Edano 8/14/2011 5:47:46 PM

is he from nagasaki university?
by elainekirk 8/14/2011 5:48:14 PM

Yes Elaine. We should ask Bo if he has any knowledge of this guy
by lillymunster 8/14/2011 5:48:39 PM

well, i can say i am really, literally shocked. so he estimated the thyroid exposure by the children's smiles, i guess.
by Edano 8/14/2011 5:49:47 PM

well in that case he should be charged and tried in an international court because he knows he is lying

i will pin that video for 1 or 2 days, okay ?
by Edano 8/14/2011 5:53:45 PM

@Edano it needs to be there permanently so wh
enever we feel deflated we can get our fight back instantly
by elainekirk 8/14/2011 5:55:42 PM

@Edano the studies on people downwind of hanford were reconstructed by a similar method of filling out surveys of activities. But they did they like 40-60 years after the fact. The Hanford study was to see who could sue for damages, not to save anyone's life or get them timely medical care. His study seems totally based off the after the fact hanford model
by lillymunster 8/14/2011 5:56:01 PM

@elainekirk yea that one will make you instantly angry over and over again.
by lillymunster 8/14/2011 5:56:33 PM

Oooh that study he signed his name to is good evidence. Even if it downplays the real problems in Chernobyl it counters his current statements.
by lillymunster 8/14/2011 5:57:57 PM

i feel big respect for any science and research, but this is so disappointing. how can he be a professor ? i really feel like crying, it is emberassing. scientists have a reputation and they should research for the benefit of mankind, or they are simply redundant.

@lillymunster I think I need to find more if we can show he has changed his tune the Japanese people will listen because they are very honest people
by elainekirk 8/14/2011 6:02:16 PM

at least, he is no doctor of medicine.
by Edano 8/14/2011 6:02:33 PM

@Edano luckily most are doing the right thing. Yamashita is getting sued but I can't find a story link about it. Journalist and some pretty well known or high ranking people are suing this guy for what he is doing and the blatant lies
