answer:I looked in my crystal ball and the answer is yes! And no! Certainly there’s CYA going on, but better safe than sorry. It could be things will get under control in the next day or so when electricity is restored. But there’s no guarantee of that. No one, it seems to me, has very good information here; not even the Japanese government itself. Probably not even the Tokyo Electric Company. With uncertainty like that, I think the State Department is just being very cautious.
