However, as a general tendency, I do not like to be familiar with recent JAPANESE who seems to have forgotten the importance of self-sacrifice. However, as this is only my impression, it may stand on wrong observation. If so, I say sorry. OOPS, I seemed to have changed the subject. Anyway, I would like to ask anyone on this net, why do you think that Japanese society have the habitts to make all the thing 'unity'. Or in the other words, WE Japanese really want to be in uniform society, I cann't believe this yet. Is this reality ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kenji Okamoto | okamoto@earth.chigaku.souka.osakafu-u.ac.jp ______ __ |__ | Universiy of Osaka Prefecture, Dept. of Earth Science, |__\/__| /|\ | Gakuen-cho 1 - 1, Sakai, Osaka 593, Japan ||_|_| | / + \ | tel(voice) +81-722-52-1161 (ext)2736 (FAX)+81-722-55-2981 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
