Looks like it's time to buy a UPS or two for the office.

Kyodo News - The Tokyo metropolitan area may face serious power shortages as early as the end of June due to the shutdown of nuclear reactors operated by Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) over a defect cover-up scandal, TEPCO officials said Thursday.

Concerns about a possible power outage in the Kanto region centering on Tokyo have grown since TEPCO shut down all of its 17 reactors for safety checks on April 15 following the cover-up scandal that emerged last August.

If I promise not to run my aircon, can I keep power for my computers?

Not bloody likely.

Maybe we should buy a lot of bananas and prepare to hook our puters up...hmmm home power generators?

Bananas?

Get ready to melt! Well Tokyo isn't as hot as Osaka, but it will be killer.

Hi, I'd like to exchange links with you. My name is Peter Payne with J-List. I think it'd be interesting. Please email me if this is possible.

I think I may break down and buy a UPS just to be safe. The computers and my time are just to valuable to lose to a random power outage. Are you really considering buying one? What are you looking at?

Adoringly yours,
