Hey Eben!
                dont you wish you lived in Tokyo, you could be one of the
100,0000 or so that have to remain inside for the next few years because the
local atomic power Station failed yesterday, releasing Radio active
particles into the atmosphere. Sometimes protests are a necessary means of
stopping very rich individuals, and corporations from destroying the
environement [and us] in their relentless thirst for the holy dollar!
Would you just sit back if Howard started to build an Atomic power Station
down the street from you?
Would you also just take it on the chin, if your job, and some 1000 others
was chopped tomorrow?
