On my recent trip to Asia, I flew through Tokyo on my return flight, and it made me consider the situation that still haunts the country more than one month after the magnitude 9.0 earthquake and the tsunami that followed. According to an April 13 New York Times article, there have been more than 400 aftershocks that measure magnitude 5.0 or more since March 11. These quakes are complicating the already perilous situation at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, where workers are struggling to cool the plant and limit radiation exposure.
