True. I wasn't really thinking when I said that.

Wow. Something to remember whenever you hear someone preaching their "growth" religion.

Lack of comfort does not mean lack of safety.

Do you think depopulation is a good thing for Japan?

For Japan and most places, yes. Maybe there are a lot of Japanese people who truly love being crammed into boxes, but there are also other issues like the amount of fish that can be hauled from the ocean and the number of jobs that will be available in an increasingly automated future. Approaching a sustainable population size is a long term good.

It is a long, and painful road down (which they are experiencing). The good news for Japan, is they are basically the last to automate, so those jobs will be there... for the handful of people that aren't elderly or women.

Here is a look at the way the broadcasters and infrastructure have changed in the 5+ years since 3/11.

Disaster Report 4 is still creeping along with development, now with input from the Kobe City Fire Department to improve the realism of disaster scenarios within the game.

Will we actually see a final release in 2018, 7 years after the game was supposedly ready to ship for PS3?
