J-bloggers and ni-channelers were initially the ones who were complaining about the WaiWai section for awhile (going on for several months). One recent posting along with a link to where the ongoing "discussion" was taking place on 2ちゃん.

Did it take the police 20 minutes to get there or did the police have a stop watch and waited until they were finished or did someone get to "review" the evidence?

I believe they used footage from some of the surveillance and traffic cams in the area to figure…

Huh? The N'EX takes approximately 74 minutes from Narita to Shinjuku. That's a far cry from 2 hours. The 53 minute run from Narita to Tokyo Station shares the Sobu line so there was no need to for anyone to place any speed limits on the N'EX since it is…

What I can't understand is why does it take so little effort to get a boarding pass from one of the automated kiosks, but it's like pulling teeth to get the same boarding pass the conventional way, face-to-face with an actual person who supposedly is more familiar with the system?…

Uhm. yeah. I run my mackerel ("saba" aka server) out in Siberia and received an email from the NPA in Japan politely asking to remove information so that it will help curb suicides and secondary damages to its citizens. They might as well just disconnect Japan from the Internet.
