I totally understand Koby’s concern. I spent several years in Japan when I was a young(er) lass, and any crime in Japan or Okinawa (unless it is committed by American GIs stationed there) is indeed news, because it is relatively rare. In the US crime is the norm and lack of it is the news—-the exception. I wouldn’t complain if I had to live the rest of my life in Japan, in that regard.

That’s funny Crawfish. There’s much similiarity between WaMu and MLE.
Both orgs have shaky foundations—-subprime mortgages for the former and a substandard rule structure for the latter. Those two belong together—-two peas in a pod!
