NetNinja - Did u ask if you were being disgusting? You were. Then again, people with no sense of manners don't care, do they? I wouldn't pull such a disgusting act on a train in my home country let alone in Japan where I knew after 5 minutes it was frowned upon. Thanks for re-inforcing the image of the uncultured gaijin.

dellennich - Theyre already here. I have a co-worker who works from 820 to 10 pm, 7 days a week. I doubt he remembers his last day off. Somehow the other co-workers speak of this in reverential terms while I am disgusted with his utter lack of a life and interest in his family.

I wonder how her 1st post-divorce album will do ( and that will be sometime in the next 18 months guaranteed)

The key words being "given the chance". My GF, working full time, is allowed to "embrace life" on Sundays, 3 days in August, and about 6 days around New Years. All while working for a pittance.

. NZ2011 - 1st world birthrates may be declining, but unlike Japan, they aren't shrinking. And please don't interpret what I said to be some naive flower-child rejection of capitalism. I was talking about Japan, and as Samantha Zoe Aso points out, the assault on ordinary Japanese families by clueless Oyaji politicians.

Not if you live in Tokyo. The last 43 million will probably all be found on the Yamanote loop.
Perhaps this is the form of protest missing to the naked eye. Japanese have simply chosen not to procreate. What other nation's people have collectively rejected life?

Another slap in th face from government suits who clearly see themselves as superior to the general Japanese population. And what has been the indignant response? A handful of obaasans camping in front of MITI offices. Japanese have become so completely beaten down that I dare say North Koreans would muster more resistance to their masters.

Utrack, the only thing YingYang took heat for was being one of the most shrill fear-mongerers on this forum. Theres a big difference between nervous queries and proclaiming armaggedon.

shirokuma2011 - They suck at dancing, singing, acting etc. But if they "Work hard" (Japanese entertainment euphomism meaning "exploited") they deserve not to be seen as bubble gum for Oyaji eyes?
You're really trying to hard. Their whole raison d'etre is to be seen as just that - a lolita fetish.

Again, this is no surprise. A country so devoid of leadership and basic competence at the top. Quietly, and secretely guided by back-room scum like Ozawa and faceless bureaucrats, none of whom with anyone to answer to. The one lesson to be gained from this is that we're all in this alone. In the next crisis, don't wait for instructions from the Japanese government. Rely on your own intuition.

RedMango - "breaking news" from over 3 weeks ago isn't "breaking" anymore. What's your next shocker? Man lands on moon?

Ivan - very bad analogy. The difference in March was passengers had the option of getting out of the plane before it crashed. Those who did the smart thing and left the Tokyo area made the right decision.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Japan is the Holy Grail for kiddie-porn aficionados .
Spettatori- If I didn't read it, I'd never believe it. Using a 1940's-era cartoon as a means of incriminating the rest of the modern world. Oh dear....

all in all, I'd say 53 injuries in a city of 14 million is pretty good. Despite some of the macho posturing here (amateurs?), I wonder how many injuries there'd be in less populated Toronto, Montreal, Chicago etc. after a storm. Probably the same.

ITS ME - Either you're from Baghdad, or have watched "Boyz in the Hood" one too many times. I'd wager the latter.
