Emancipation should not be just one set of individuals getting and not giving.
I like the formalized ritual giving. A good practice on give and take.
Besides, if you really like someone, this is a great excuse. Would there be a better chance to be a secret admirer and possibly get away with it? Possibly? :)

Is the quality of creative writing so undervalued that a subject such as this one would even come to light? What logic dictates the abuse of any category? Royal or not, this is unnecessary. "The Russians, French and Chinese had it right as far as the born into privilege goes."I agree to disagree, but I will do so politely. This is not justice. The decisions of those involved with the murders of these categories of people was not right. It was not even clear or clever. Any one person should not be judged, much less murdered, by those bigoted enough to want them "dealt with." This is not justice. I asked a brave man something once. I had asked a question on how are the rich treated since he'd now seen both worlds. Point blank, he said "they want us all dead." I thought "you've got to be kidding". I thought about it and watched people. I found he was right. The rich, the powerful, even the emblematic are not the cause of the current economic anything. They are neither the cause nor the cure. Throwing their money at the current situations would be no more effective than the workings of a Medieval Hungarian stomach pump. Monte Python quote there. They don't have a way of defending themselves in public that would be publicly acceptable. Enough. This is just kicking someone when they are down. I wouldn't do this to a dog.

I saw a great movie on the dramatic interpretation of reality show, "Dot the I". Very impressive.
But reality shows in general, they just don't give as they get.

Did they mention anywhere it was "lit up" at any other time other than 3AM?
Say 3:15AM, perhaps?

They were arranged by the hues and intensities, etc. in the clothing. Seems like a mismatch but would have been a worse choice to let them march in randomly. See the darkest shades are on the outside of the arrangement.

"There are lots of men out there who take advantage of young woman who are either naive or money-hungry or both"
"I paid a photographer 30,000 yen, and we went to a hotel"
dolphingirl, agreed. --the tipoff, for control of proper lighting, among other things, why not a professional photography studio?

"they do often have those charts with the order of the stations and the time in minutes it takes to get there. They are usually posted on a pillar on the platform. Problem is not all lines/companies do this. It's kind of hit and miss which is annoying. They help a lot if you are new to the area"
patjs--Thanks!

I think they are very nice.
A suggestion, have a very visible chart guide on the walls, indicating the stations and proximity, like the Tube in London.
