Japan will not be a world leader in space and also will not be joined in the stupid space game. To develop good technology of greenhouse gas monitoring satellite will surely help and save us in near future.

I heard that about 1000 minki whales are killed a year but minkis will produce more offsprings to fix the population, acutually minki's popolation increase every year according to IWC data. If minkis don't produce offsprings, yes, you are right, then their population will dinimish.

In future all people are facing shortage of food. Pro-whalers do not want to exterminate whales because of one of precious foods. Scientific research is now important to prevent extermination for future.

I just wonder if j-whalers violated australian EEZ or others EEZ, why do not these countries indict to international court of justice? I think majority of countries think antarctic water is in high sea, not belong to any particular countries.

I do not think that majority of people would boycott all Japanese products even if people agreed with anti-whale protestors. It is very unrealistic for people to avoid Japanese products because maybe your cars (if) used J-parts do not even run.

Japan will not hunt and kill whales for scientitic research if whales come to medical examinations of biological blood tests, food poisonings tests, small and large intestine tests, etc and answer the many questions such as what kinds of things you ate today, etc, etc.

I think that Japan may be able to be much satisfied with commercial whaling in costal waters around Japan if IWC allows Japan to do it. However good scientitic research seems to be very necessary/important in very wide ocean in order to prevent extermination of all whales. People always must learn something from the past.

J-whalers take about 6 months to hunt whales all over in the widest ocean because purpuse is for scientific reserch. I heard that they could hunt 900 in 2 months in small area if purpose/target is only for commercial and J-whalers have good skills of whale search and harpoon.

J-whalers stops temporarily but they hunt around 900 whales until end of April every year. Fact, too.

I and maybe other people don't think Sea Shepherd's radical actions whatever actions would not stop j-whalers as they still have been hunting for more than 20 years until today and in future. Because this is a cat-chasing-mouse game.

It seems that Australia can not stop J-whalers legally and Japan will not stop hunting for research forever. I see something clear. This issue will not get anywhere unless they meet half way each other.

esasychord2 - Almost all japanese did NOT think that monkey on that commercial was Mr. Obama. That was just a joke/parody like that movie companies make stupid/funny imitations of original movies. I asked some japanese about it and they did not think he was Obama.

That seems to be just a joke inducing people to play. There are all kinds of look-alike masks at shops.

Please your life try not to depend on evacuation camps holding stockpiles. You will wait for some water and food for many many hours. Public toilets become too terrible to do it.

People had better stockpile food, water, medicine, etc and helmet, flashlight, AM/FM radio at home/workplace for at least one week. You will need these things if you are alive after earthquake occured. I think a big problem is TOILET with no water flush. You may need a lot of shopping plastic bags temporarily.

I think Japanese are generally not daily religious people but they become religious sometimes because they want to make wishes come true. Shrine seems to be only place where some god listen to you.

I don't understand why this old brother hit his little sister with axe. Maybe there might have had some kind of feud between them.

Mr. Aso just wants to keep being a prime mister for a while and also don't want to lose his Cabinet office now. So poeple don't like LDP as Aso will not do better policy for homeless/jobless people any more. People wants "change" to DPJ. 12000yen cash one time can do NOT much.
