Arnie Gundersen Interview KGO Radio’s Pat Thurston April 15, 2012

Gundersen at ~25:00 in

There’s more cesium in that [Unit 4] fuel pool than in all 800 nuclear bombs exploded above ground…

But of course it would happen all at once.

It would certainly destroy Japan as a functioning country…

Move south of the equator if that ever happened, I think that’s probably the lesson there.

If I can just win the lottery I have a nice little 5,000 acre spread picked out in Northern Patagonia. Lots of good freshwater fishing and in a sheltered valley.

Patagonia is different -

Number one difference that sets Patagonia apart from the rest of Chile, no one is in a hurry. I don't just mean a bit of “manana” attitude that is so common to much of Latin America and the rest of Chile. I mean in selling real estate in the Patagonia, sellers are willing to wait years and decades if needed for the price they want. They don't care what land is worth in the United States, Canada, Costa Rica, or even Argentina, and for the most part don't need to care.

The net effect is that it takes the teeth out of many of the most traditional negotiating tactics used by foreigners when buying real estate in the Patagonia. For example, you are not likely to get someone overly excited about an offer and have them make a hasty decision that might benefit you in a real estate decision.

That leads us to some important cultural notes on purchasing land or real estate in the Patagonia. Always remember when dealing with locals in the Patagonia, you need them more than they need you. Treat them with the respect they deserve. Buying real estate in the Patagonia is like applying to be member of the community. People often want to get to know you better, before starting negotiations. Don't just jump in to questions like “how much do you want for your land”. Stop, have some coffee, lunch, ask about their farm, the weather, their cows and sheep. Deals are given to friends in the Patagonia, not strangers. The reason this is so important in the Patagonia is because very few properties have "for sale" signs posted on them or will be listed with a real estate agent in Southern Chile. Luckily, most people are very friendly, and making friends is one of the few things that generally happens quickly in the Patagonia of Chile.

The number one rule to buying real estate in Patagonia or anywhere in Chile is take your time. Never rush. There will be plenty of property for sale, for many, many years to come. When in doubt, get professional assistance from people that know the Patagonia.

Thanks. It always helps to understand the culture of an area. People are people but regions have mutual social agreements and if you violate them it can affect you for a long time. Having had the privilege of living in different parts of this country, and visiting others, has helped my viewpoint in understanding other people immensely. It always cracked me up overseas that the guys who whined the loudest about being in a foreign country never went any further from base than the Americanized local bar district. They never learned the culture, or the people. They cut themselves off from all of the pleasures of visiting a different land.

Yep, even on our first trip to Mazatlan (1978 honeymoon), it was easy enough to see how the term Ugly American came into use.

It's unfortunate in a way that America is relatively isolated - and most people do not even "get it" that they live an insular existence. The country is so large and many of its people rarely get outside its borders, and when they do they just assume that everybody else is the rube for not acting like an American. Different culture, different ethnics, and it just strikes me as good manners to learn something about the customs of where you are visiting. I really like Japan as the Japanese are a very civilized people. It was the only place I knew of where I could walk down an alley at 3 AM dead drunk and not have worry about getting rolled - except near the base when there was a stateside ship in port.

It cracked me up when I was in Australia - I stopped to get a coffee in a Mall and the waitress was Canadian - she was absolutely tickled to run into somebody from "home".
