Frick no!, however to give these hero’s the benefit of the doubt, I think they are probably thinking of their family’s and friend’s futures more than their own.

Ya I don't think these guys are going to work in this radiation knowing they are going to die for the company, they are doing it because they know if nothing is done it may spell and even bigger disaster for there country. They are going to die for the country, family and friends. That is something truly heroic.

And to put it bluntly Hedley they are putting your future ahead of their own interests. If you remember many did that about 70 years ago as well. Tell me if that hasn't been a benifit to you. There is no greater demonstration of love for fellowman that to put your life down for them. You sir are a selfish man. I can understand why doing something this brave would never cross your mind.

Doesn't take a psychic to figure out who's missing the point. We have people standing in the gap to try to stop radiation from spreading across a large portion of the world and your advise is " If the boss isn't going in then neither will I " Sure just let em melt to the ground, run as far and as fast as you can. If that happens to 3 or 4 of those reactors you will have no where to run so now what? As was pointed out these people are probably giving themselves up so others might not have to. And you chide them for their selfless acts of courage. Like I said, it appears by your posts that it's all about me, myself and I with you.
