there are some maybe more unorthodox points of view that you'll find. and i think you'll find an extraordinary level of canter in which i talk about things like social security and medicare. i want today to find of give a summary of some of the maybe salient points that i think are most critical in understanding what's in this book, why i wrote it, and then, of course, i'll be happy to answer your questions. i've always say in politics, we call that q & a, that stands in your mind for questions and answers, if you are at the podium, it stands for questions and avoidance. i want to avoid something that will be a career killer. the concept of the book, and even the title, is that while the issues that we face in this country are extraordinary complex, often the answers to dealing with them, they aren't easy, but they are simple. and it's necessary to back away and look not through a micro, but a macro lens at some of the problems and ask ourselves is there a common sense principal that we could apply that would make sense out of the some of the challenges

well, your--your art to date has been unorthodox, in the view of some. would your film work be the same? do you have a vision of film that might be different from what other people are doing currently? you know, it would probably be in line with a lot of the ideas and thoughts and feelings that have gone into my own work, you know, into my photographic work. and so it would not be so off-base, you know. but it would be film, which is different. but you also make precious objects. that is, you make limited editions of photographs. and when piss christ became a controversy, people thought it actually was a work, an object in three dimensions they would see. and they were startled to see a photograph. when you look at a technique or a medium, is it something for you that is changeable in film from photography-- in intention--as well? would you take us in a new direction or dimension through film? i'd certainly try, of course, you know. definitely. i--i find that--you know, i don't create too many art objects, but i have. and even though they will not, you k

this is unorthodox. we've never done this before. this is a science experiment in the making. they're literally making it up as they go along. this is seawater being dumped to prevent the full-scale melting. but even if there is full-scale melting, it takes an explosion to then blow the whole thing apart. so a meltdown is in stages. it takes 30 minutes to several hours for a full-scale meltdown. >> and, dr. kaku, as you've mentioned, this is a science experiment in the making. uncharted territory that the japanese are in right now. what should we be paying attention to in the coming hours and days to make sure a crisis has been averted? >> first we expect that this second reactor, unit three, may have another hydrogen steam explosion. so it's like deja vu all over again. another repeat of the first accident. second, if there's a secondary earthquake, that could tip the whole thing over, pipes could break, leaks could take place. and even as you put seawater in, the water could bleed out creating a full-scale meltdown. that's the nightmare scenario. more pipe breaks. >> and we

> chris: the dictionary defines "a cult" this way -- a religion or sect considered to be false, unorthodox or extremist, with members often living outside of conventional society, under the direction of a charismatic leader. most members of your congregation are members of your extended family. many of them live in a compound along with the church in topeka, kansas. isn't westboro baptist a cult? >> well, obvious, you can imagine you're not the first person to make that suggestion, and my dad would probably laugh at the notion that he's charismatic. what he is god-fearing. we live mainstream. we're in your schools, in your job and every day a testimony. at the end of the day, call us a cult, call us anything. just publish the words. at this point, all of that name-calling has become white noise, as the entire world looks over at this message. and, in fact, this case put a megaphone to the mouth of this church. >> chris: you talk about your father as god-fearing. your father had 13 children. two of your brothers, nate and mark, say that your father abused your mother and abused you kids. th
