The real problem with a nuclear Japan is that they would probably have some 80-year-old security ojisan guarding their arsenals and nuclear secrets.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the large number of old women with bent backs? Is this some sort of osteoporosis? Is this an Asian thing like the whole ear wax difference?
