Posted in: Hopes rise for missing 2 Japanese divers off Bali See in context
It sounds like these divers were ill prepared & careless in planning safety precautions. Many countless stories of a similar predicament & yet a lesson should have been learned. Not here though...

Posted in: What's your favorite coffee shop chain in Japan? See in context
Why isn't Miyakoshiya listed here? It serves up the very best brew in Japan! Most of their coffee shops are located in Sapporo, although they do a few shops in Tokyo.

Posted in: 50 years after JFK's assassination, conspiracy theories remain over who actually killed him. Which of the following is closest to your point of view? See in context
Absolutely no doubt in my mind that another shooter was involved given that investigation of the warren commission was completely botched-up from beginning to end!

Posted in: Fukushima question continues to dog Tokyo Olympic bid See in context
"Tokyo and Fukushima are almost 250 kilometers apart. We are quite remote from Fukushima.”
Yeah, also how insulting to the people of Fukushima too. Nope, Japan (gov't) deserves the international criticism for acting too slow & complacent AND for not being completely transparent and up-front with the people of Japan & the international community. It would be nice if Japan gets the Olympics for 2020 but I think unlikely at this point.

Posted in: Japan says it is in touch with U.S., others on Fukushima water crisis See in context
Yeah, in touch with an occasional email with the US. It's going to take a lot more than a casual, complacent approach to international help. The gov't needs to be proactive on this on massive international reach for help in solving this crisis.
