Quick question about the Sim City simulation game (GREAT GAME!) -- when
Godzilla is stomping through your city, the alert box informs you of this,
and says that you might call someone for help -- except this someone's name
appears to be written in Kanji character.  Can anyone who has seen the game
translate? 

I suspect that this is an in-joke... 

                           "Humphrey, who is it that
                            has the last word about
                            the government of
                            Britain? The British
                            cabinet or the American
                            president?"
                                                     "You know, that's a
                                                      fascinating question. We
                                                      often discuss it."
                                           -- Yes, Prime Minister
