  I guess all of the "NO" voters do not understand "democracy" in all it's aspects. There are some rights ALL citizens have, regardless of what they have done (at least until proven guilty of something).

  We can't shut up somebody "just because I freakin' said so", or "just because I believe it is wrong if he talks"...

  Those who can't agree to this should look to better places like North Korea or (a softer example) - China for what happens if those rights are arbitrarily ignored.

  Yes, before being indicted he still enjoys all the rights and liberties like any other japanese citizen. This does include freedom of speech...

  I bet all the interviewers think they were absolutely perfect at their first interview.

  The single most important feature of the Konotori (ignored here) is that it is pressurised at almost 1 ATM, and that the launching system does not exceed the g limits acceptable for launching astronauts.

  And none of them have a really good compass :) - something like this:

  BTW the recipe for it:

  "The ratio of flour, butter and eggs is typically 1:1:2 respectively (i.e., 100 grams of flour, 100 grams of butter and 200 grams of eggs)" - holly - in this picture we are looking at a few tens of millions of calories :)...

  It is surely taken with consent, as I believe it is illegal to post pictures like this without the subject agreeing to it. I can't believe how fast 3 years had past.

  Why is Japan so reluctant to label this attack as "terrorist" is beyond me..
