My feeling exactly

A guy was seated next to a 10-year-old girl on an airplane. Being bored, he turned to the girl and said, “Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.”

The girl, who was reading a book, closed it slowly and said to the guy, “What would you like to talk about?”

Oh, I don't know,” said the guy. “How about nuclear power?”

“OK,” she said. “That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat the same stuff... grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?”

The guy thought about it and said, “Hmmm, I have no idea.”

To which the girl replied, “Do you really feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know sh*t?”

(Shamelessly quoted from Got Rice?)

Update: Purnendra Jain writes for Asia Times about Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's visit last week to India and the possibility of building of new nuclear power plants in India which "would mean great opportunities for Japanese companies, as they are world leaders in this technology." The articles also touch on the diplomatic relations between Japan and India. Do read both Part 1 and Part 2.

Sounds like the dream of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperty Sphere" is still alive in the LDP, just under different tactics.

Bush is also pushing nukes, trying to set up a coalition between France, Canada, the US and Australia - countries that use nuclear power or have uranium.
