Toyota? the car company that cant stop? Gets less gas mileage than an F150 because they refuse to accept direct inject technology? oh and the toyota tundra costs $20,000 more than an F150 for less of a truck...try again? Ford and GM trucks are not the trucks of 10 - 15 years ago.

Hey Ranger and Burakimin, want Japan to be like Australia? Better idea, move yourself there. Business owers should have a right to decide how to run their business like they do here. DONT LIKE SMOKING PLACES THEN DONT GO TO THEM. Not sure why this is so hard for you to understand. If you think that non-smoking matters that much, dont patronize smoking places. Eventually theyll feel the hurt of all the lost customers (if youre right) and swtich their place to non-smoking. If youre wrong they wont. If a place wants to be 100% non-smoking im all for it, if it doesnt im fine with that too, if they wanna segregate it im fine with that too, if they wanna have a closet or room for a smoker to get their fix im fine with that too. You anti smoking fanatical freaks would get a lot further if you were willing to compromise instead of all or nothing. Like the smoking areas inside Narita airport...tell me they bother a non-smoker and ill tell you are are full of it. We smokers are more than willing to compromise, youre not.

um go to non-smoking restaurants and bars? Still never understand why the non-smoking party is 100% or nothing. Why does EVERY single place have to be non-smoking. Some people smoke, they should have places to be able to go to. Dont like it? Dont go. Patronize your non-smoking establishments.

that number probably skyrockets if you add in the "only smoke when I drink" crowd.

I like the smoking and non-smoking policies here. Want a non-smoking place, go to one. Want to smoke, go to a smoking place. Way better than just mandating how business owners should run their business...and both smokers and non-smokers have places they can go to.

Should be good, not too many pitchers bring 7 different pitches to the table. If does as well as expected, then they got a huge deal. With 4 pitchers in the MLB already over $20 million, if he can be at their standard or better, then hes a definite bargain...and will be bought out by the Yankees or Sox at a $20 mil tag once his contracts out.

Wonder how much better the whale populations would do if all the money the SS used on illegally assaulting legal researchers (loophole means legal) was instead used on funding conservation of whale habitat and legislature to push to close the loophole...? You may not like the harvesting of whales for research, but at the end of the day only the lunatics of the SS are committing crimes.

One day the illegally interfering SS will push the line to far. Stun grenades were more than likely in self defense as the whaling research boats are the ones being attacked.

Sorry but what the Japanese are doing is LEGAL...hence loophole. I say treat these eco pirates like they did back in the day. Keel Haul these idiots. With all the money the SS uses to build boats, and terrorize LEGAL activities, they could do so much more for the environment buy donating all that cash to conservation. Nothing but a bunch of glory seeking idiots. Hopefully these people are detained for x years in a Japanese prison.
