    WAY more people die of Alcohol related issues than they do of taking Ecstasy. The social impacts of Ecstasy have actually proven to be beneficial in many ways; look at the mid-late 80'S in England. Ecstasy pretty much destroyed the whole Hooligan scene and made way for much more peaceful social lives for a very large amount of people.

    You can die from taking it, admittedly, but most of the deaths are related to dehydration and over-heating which could be avoided through education.

    My theory is, this hostess was already really drunk when she took the pills, was probably dehydrated for days before, and being Japanese, had never been educated in the ways of correct hydration when taking stimulants.

    Shame she died, for sure, and this Oshio guy needs to be held accountable. His claim that he didn't know that the pills were illegal is blatant rubbish.

    I think cricket is much better than baseball! Way more refined a game (I may have a national bias though, if I am honest)

    “By sending our top players we were able to show what an exciting sport baseball is and it’s important for the sport to be an Olympic event.”

    We know what Baseball is about already. The guy seems to think that it is a Japanese invention...

    It is a survey. Surveys are subjective.

    If the Japanese suddenly started behaving in accordance with is what is currently deemed to be correct, how would you lot get your self-righteous moaning kicks?

    Exactly, DeepAir65. A 2500円 set of earphones are not manufactured with sonic fidelity in mind though, to be fair. Imagine how much of the 150yen that goes into building these pieces of sh@ is reserved for the drivers...
