Japan survives by hard work and innovation. I really don't know much about where things come from, but it surprises many people to learn some of the truths about Japan. For example, some people think Japan imports all it's lumber. It ain't so. Most of Japan is covered in a managed forest of Japanese Cedar, a really excellent wood. One tree gets cut, one gets planted. They damned up all the rivers long ago to make power, but it sure isn't enough. There's nuke plants scattered all over the country, with new ones sprouting up every day. -- Jim Davis, President, Eastern Beaver Company, http://ebeaver.oberro.com/ Motorcycle Relay Kits
