Well, CHA:

"Alarmed by the precarious nature of spent fuel storage during his recent tour of the Fukushima Daiichi site, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Oregon, subsequently fired off letters to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Secretary of Energy Steven Chu, NRC Chairman Gregory Jaczko and Japanese ambassador to the U.S. Ichiro Fujisaki. He implored all parties to work together and with the international community to address this situation as swiftly as possible.

In a statement released by his office, Wyden replied, "The radiation caused by the failure of the spent fuel pools in the event of another earthquake could reach the West Coast within days. That absolutely makes the safe containment and protection of this spent fuel a security issue for the United States."

Yep, I know. NOthing I can do about it. Had a talk with some locals down at the coast last week. Person told me that stuff is washing up regular now and that people just go and pick it up. City goverment tells them to DISPOSE of it safely but offers no place that could handle potentially dangerous stuff.

So there ya go.

Roseanna Roseanna Dana had it right: Its always something.

Earthquake hits Japan or the West Coast, we could be in for a shitload of disaster.
On the other hand, the sun could flare out and go POOF! End of us as we know it.

Its always something and none of us get out of here alive. So you must live now, live now and keep an eye out but just LIVE. NOW.
