That would make you over-qualified to be a politician then. I am convinced most of them have never participated in any government class.

Why doesn't anyone provide sources for some of these claims?

SOS, please explain to me how they TOOK any of those things from us; did we secretly go to war lost to them and part of the peace treaty require that we GIVE them these industries? And as far as, "more people relocate to Japan to keep their job then Japanese people come here..." [sic], would you care to provide a source for this bit of interesting information?

Read you history book... Or did they not teach it at Big Red? All the facts are there. Please quit with the you vs. me crap and wake up. The facts are about you, all you have to do is look. I am not going to do your homework for you, I am not your football coach.

It's pretty obvious that you're an ignorant inbred that's never left the Ohio Valley, but it's not only common courtesy to cite your work, it's a requirement when you want to convince others of your view point! You must not have learned that at JCC, so it's you that should be doing your homework!
I won't knock IC and proclaim that they didn't teach you the basics when I know that you were just to dumb to learn. Isn't that why you transfered, for their special education curriculum?

I will donate something, not sure yet what it will be, but I'll be damned if I give anything to the Red Cross.

Also, though Japan was technically a Democratic Parliamentary, the military had basically taken over the government, and acted independently in many cases.

I have already donated $500 to "Save the Children". I plan on making a couple more donations. Just looking for a couple different charities.

Reading some of these post makes me angry because these people didn't ask for this natural disaster. The Japanese gave us money during Katrina and 9-11.

XBox 360 indie RPG (kinda like the Dragon Quest series). Cthulhu wakes from his slumber to destroy the world, but a mysterious figure drains him of his powers. He finds that the only way to regain them is through heroic actions, meaning that he'll have to save the world to destroy it. Kind of an homage game that pokes fun of a lot of cliches and tropes.
