* In addition to the radiation problem, there was no water. But I later did hear of a Mr. Matsumura Naoto, said to be “the sole remaining resident of the radiation-tainted town of Tomioka.” “After signing some papers for the police, he comes and goes as he pleases, and the officers look the other way. Unauthorized entry to the zone is punishable by a fine of up to 100,000 yen or detention.” Although he “spends six to seven hours a day” outdoors “feeding pets and livestock,” his reported cumulative dosage was insanely low. Maybe he left his dosimeter inside. In Tomioka there might also have been a woman who stayed to care for a paralyzed relative.
