It's been three months since the anniversary of the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear meltdown. It's understandable that Japan wants to move on and face new challenges. We at the Abiko Free Press couldn't agree more. But... Let's move on with an understanding of where we've been. As Prime Minister Noda endeavors to convince a skeptical country to turn the nuclear power stations back on, it's as important as ever to understand what really happened on 3/11, and what still needs to happen. In our humble opinion, you could do far worse than read Reconstructing 3/11, featuring insights by:
