I'm interested as to why this discussion is important to you that's all.

Do you feel better about yourself being American when you feel that American companies are doing well and being innovative?

Is the performance of Japanese companies a factor in your respect for Japan or any country?

Innocent questions that I hope you can answer for me.

I mind when you turn it into personal attacks and I get complaints and have to deal with it.

As long as you can keep it ON TOPIC and not PERSONAL ATTACKS then you have nothing to worry about.

Well I would argue that it is on topic, and that there was nothing personal about the questions I asked.

You just stated the topic was over at the first page, and you are making it about what interests you.

I am not attacking you, I am just saying stay on topic...don't attack people and let's keep it clean.

Well.... I believe that my post above was sufficiently relative to the topic being discussed. It is clear that you believe that it was not and I have no problem with that though please wait untill I have crossed the line of decency before you tell me off. What I meant by the topic was over in the first page was that the question posed in the original post was answered sufficiently then.

In any case.. point noted.

Come to think of it, this guy (OP) seems to always be poking at Japan or people's reaction to Japan, what they do or their culture . . . I seriously wonder why.


My Life Sucks- The kids I babysit have drooled, ripped or drawn on all of the cards and put the cars with the little people in the microwave!

I have no Friends- The cats have scratched and destroyed all of the DVDs!

I always owe someone- In fact I put two os in it!

I always ruin my clothes with Bleach!- The show is so dom suspensful I spill my grape soda on them!

But . . .I'll live.
