Staggered.

Be acted upon and then take action.     

Nearly paralyzed by the Japanese earthquake, tsunami and now nuclear catastrophe.   How does one go on with "business as usual".   Pam says such a shaking requires a shift.  Our usual has shifted as well.  I'll think about that.

I will say today though, that again, posting has been my breath.   I've been trying to seek out someone in the nuclear energy realm who will help me keep up the hope that our move to that source hasn't just also evaporated.  The press has terrified us all.  As of today, we have a serious crisis and I am reluctantly reading about the plant operations and rescue which will likely result in deadly radiation for some.   But the real story is the 2,000 people who have washed up on a beach and the older people and babies who are without homes when it is below freezing.   Anyway, my heart bleeds, my spirit mourns and that's about all I can do.

I began this bit today because as I said, I still wished to have a post next week.   I still was hoping that the people who know about this could lead me to a positive sliver.   There is one.  There is a type of green nuclear, it involves thorium, the Chinese know about it, some Americans know about, and get this I know about it!  Go figure.   I can glance at Roger Pielke's blog today, agree with him and know what the commentors are writing about.  All because of posting.  All because I have figured out a way to take action that makes me not feel powerless when a worldwide crisis runs me over.

who knew.   amen.
