Many elderly people seem to be very naive or too honest to strangers. I've heard about similar cases many times in Japan. They really need to suspect people about money things. If she made a phone call to confirm her grandson before payment done, she would not pay to scammers.

I saw TV news. Some old houses were completely collapsed by wet heavy snow. Roof had about 300 tons snow. Old houses would not make it. That's why they don't want to leave their houses and would stay to watch snow.

China would never implement the joint project with Japan. Why don't they get it? China would do whatever it wants without Japan.

Britain seems to make new war with Argentina and invade the whole country. The US and Britain are a kind of same. They love wars. Britain should send a peaceful sailboat to Malvinas instead of warship.

No free medical care means the government never takes responsibilities of the radiation leaks and possible in the future. As a result, such irresponsible Government and Power company should not have built nuclear power plants in the first place. it seems that they are not qualified to build such plants.

All politicians seem to be very incompetent about any disaster management. At lest one of ministers should have thought of the recordings of meetings but no one did. And also Bureaucrats seem to be very incompetent about it. They knew they had to keep records of any crisis but they did not because they were not instructed by their ministers. They intentionally did not keep records because they do not wanted to be accused later about what they did over the disaster.

The government didn't keep records because politicians and bureaucrats don't want to be criticized / accused later about a lot of critical mistakes they did over the crisis. This is really understandable but this is really the biggest stupid mistake ever.

Any commercials seem to be very cheap, cheesy to use big role of animals such as dog, cat, duck, etc to promote the products. Animal is irrelevant to the product.

It seems that the 311 earthquake might have affected other potential epicenters all over Japan. More earthquakes have been happening more often since it. It is very possible that the biggest earthquake might hit Tokyo in minutes, in hours, in days, and probably within 4 years.

Euro common currency system seems to be at a big failure. Some nations have rich economy and some have poor with very different cultures. situation is very similar to complicated international marriage. They are potentially hiding/holding some kind of deep problems / troubles like with love affair, financial debt , criminal record, etc of the present / past before the big wedding. I'm sure they will face breakup of the marriage or already broke up? Eurozone seems to be impossible from the beginning.
