My town in Fukushima, which is 100km away from the melting power plants, now has working phones, water, electricity and apparently even gas. Or at least part of the town does.
Whatever you hear on the news about the apparent total incompetence of the Japanese government and the apparent dire status of the entire freaking nation, take it with a grain of salt, please. The media love to focus only on the bad. I'm sure the government's making plenty of mistakes, but I bet they're doing a lot of things right too.
