I wasn&#x27;t suggesting otherwise. I&#x27;ve lived in Japan and in Europe for a number of years, and I&#x27;ve always found that the respective media failed to describe the other place in a way that I felt was accurate. I&#x27;ve come to be rather amused by that, that&#x27;s all.<p>For what it&#x27;s worth I do agree with you, for all the doom and gloom about Japan post-recession in the western media, it is very good place to live. I do believe that the overwhelming majority of the residents agree, and are voting with their feet accordingly.
