Japan: A Revealing Blog by a Fukushima Robot Operator

Blogger Erico Guizzo at IEEE Spectrum's robotics blog reported that “an anonymous worker at Japan’s Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant has written dozens of blog posts describing the ups and downs of his experience as one of the lead robot operators at the crippled facility.” The blog was called “Say Whatever I Want, Do Whatever I Want” (Iitai Hohdai, Yaritai Hohdai 言いたい放題、やりたい放題) and after it became popular among the netizens it was eventually deleted.
Guizzo managed to make a copy of it and translated some of the posts.

    Thank you for this post! Guizzo deserves many thank-you’s as well for having the initiative on archiving something with an inevitable deletion.
