Punk song about nuclear meltdown from 1979.... more relevant than ever, right Japan?

"27.3 Radiation Overdose" by Ice 9 (Portland, Oregon, USA

Hey, I grew up in Pennsylvania during Three Mile Island. Some activists I knew fled the state, fearing death. I was at a poetry festival where I met Allen Ginsberg. We actually thought we might die that weekend. But we didn't.

Then we had radioactive rain in San Francisco after Chernobyl.

Now they have the potential for nuclear disaster in Japan because of the tsunami/earthquake.

Can't believe some "responsible people" still want more nuclear, not less.... As Pete Seeger might say, "When will they ever learn? When will they e-ver learn?"
