This is terribly tragic.

Still, every cloud and all that...looks like a perfect place for them to hold Battle Royale with all the old fogeys proving a drain on the national resources because Generations I and Y won't work or have kids. I'd qualify soon and I'd be all for something like that. We could televise it live. Preferably, I'd rather see it as the Japan leg of a World Series (with more than one cuntry) by doing something similar with gun-toting fundies in the Eew-Nighted States. The ratings would be sensational...and, if not, we could get AKB48 participating for good measure.

So this now possible for residents who cannot enter the area to view what remains of their property after the earthquake, tsunami and looters have done their best/worst. :cry:

it's very sad to take the tour, people's lives left behind, must be heartrending for the former residents
