[SystemSafety] Short news article on Fukushima Dai-ichi and Risk

[Dick Selwood]

Amateur? I see myself more as a recently fledged professional who 
happens to need a day job writing about electronics

Felt it would be unfair to point out that it wasn't just Normandy that 
was part of the lands claimed by the English Crown Half of modern France 
came under English rule in 1154 with the marriage of Eleanor of 
Aquitaine to Henry, later Henry II, Their sons included Richard Couer de 
Lion.

Unfortunately for Anglo-French relationship from then on, others in 
France disputed this ownership and this lead, indirectly,to the hundred 
years war and the succession of wars thereafter.

I won't rise to Peter's bait on breakaway service though!
