My mother's stories of the time include:
	living in a horse stable (like Christmas) at Santa Anita Race Track,
	so it is funny to watch Carroll Ballard's The Black Stallion
	which was filmed there.

	attending Los Angeles High under internment orders, this is a
	building in the old TV series Room 222.

	she describes saving toothpaste tubes to be melted down for use
	in fighters.  Recycling was a necessity.  Car tires were impossible
	to get, gas and food were rationed.

	she describes a big white Red cross ship going to Tokyo.

	she remembers floating at head level in a river while Tokyo was
	burning (March 1945).

	she had these old lps with Japanese music.

	working in McArthur's GHQ doing translation.

My father's stories include:
	the usual walk five miles in the snow to get to school (Utah Valley)
	suppose every one used to get that.

	cut railroad ties for fire wood

	move to Chicago and idolize Al Capone (modern day Robin Hood).
	banks as evil and other depression stories.

	go to a Normandy beachhead wondering whether they would get
	cut down by German burp guns or heavy machine guns while listening
	to Scottish bag pipes.

	walking in Patton's army and being threatened with fines if your
	uniform wasn't immaculate: boot shined, helmet polished, unless
	you were coming off the line.

Strange? Maybe.  Followups to soc.culture.japan.

As I had mentioned about a year ago, my father had a Japanese-American
friend who almost got sent to internment camp.  The guy was born in USA.
But my father ended up having to vouch for him to some government
brearucracy and had to call or visit him often to "check up on him"
to make that government agency happy.  My father's friend wasn't
allowed to own a shortwave radio.  
Must have been a strange time back 50 years ago.

Assuming for the sake of argument that this is true, does it justify what

Rick, that's just not true. Bush got the support of the vast majority of Americans,
of all political stripes during the deployment of troops and subsequent war in
the middle east. 

His handling of domestic affairs and the mistakes he made after the Gulf War
got going are what sent his popularity through the floor. 

I mean, for crying out loud, Bush's own people were against him. George Will
and Bill Safire said he should step down! 

He had all the support the country could give a president, and he blew it. 

BTW, I'd look for Herschensohn to run for Governer against Wilson next time...
I think the GOP is brewing  a big fight for "the soul of the party", to paraphrase
Mr. Buchanan. 

Hey, we all never had our election post-mortem. Are we still going to do that?
How about this Friday?

Fine. What's that got to do with what we're talking about.  Since it didn't

I suspect that Bruce will _not_ run,  and what's more is unlikely
to make another run for office period. He was left awfully
emotionally bruised after this last race (a great deal of it
uncalled for--and this coming from a liberal democrat who voted
for Boxer) and I suspect he thinks there are better things to do
with his time. I'd pick Bay Buchanan as the rightist challenger.
Rumor has it that Kathy (is that the right first name?) Brown,
Jerry's sister is considering a governor run in '94. Of course in
'91 she said she had no intentions of such a campaign, so who
knows whether the rumor will pan out. Could make an interesting
run though, Bay versus Kathy. I doubt that Wilson will lose the
primary though.

Any other idle Gubernatorial speculations out there?

Apparently, Dianne Feinstein was sworn in as a Senator yesterday,
November 10, even though the Congress is not in session and
even though the terms of incumbent Senators end on January 3.
It seems that, because she was elected to fill the rest
of Wilson's term and is replacing an appointed Senator, her
term begins immediately after the election.

The good thing about this, whatever you may think about
Feinstein, is that she has more seniority than the other
incoming Senators and therefore will be able to pick
up better committee assignments.

I recall reading that in the Southern Hemisphere (home of the
famed hole) UV levels *have* been increasing as marked by a
distinct increase in skin cancer rates among the Australian
population. I've heard bits of anecdotal evidence from people who
regularly visited Australia over time and found that they burned
more quickly on each trip. None of this is necessarily conclusive,
but it is not something to turn one's back on. There is panic
mongering on the green end of the scale but the attitudes of
people at the other end (brown?) of the environmental spectrum
that we should completely ignore the problem is just as
irresponsible.

It seems to me that I'm not the only one who doesn't understand how
results are determined - even my American colleagues couldn't explain
me how it's done.  So I just post the follwoing simple question:

Why did Feinstein and Boxer give their victory speeches at about 11pm,
and why did CNN even come up with the results at about 9pm that Feinstein 
and Boxer are elected.  Although I understand that CNN's results are
based on exit polls why do they announce these as true results.
And, during Feinsteins speech, the local stations here (NBC, ABC and
CBS) showed that she was 53% to 47% in front after 27% of the votes
were reported.  How could she be sure that she won?  Am I missing
something?

In the next few days the papers are going to start reporting how the Boxer
campaign handed off this piece of "news" to the Democratic Party to release
so they could maintain deniability.  When The Sleeze brought this out, we
knew that he would (1) be suspended and (2) be reactivated right after the
election.  We were right on both counts.  

The Sleeze has a long history of doing this sort of thing to other
candidates, and earlier this year authored a memo encouraging the
Democratic party to spread rumors about President Bush concerning his
sexual habits.

Boxer planned this, she knew about this and she condoned it.  There's no
denying that.

As far as debates go.  One debate.  Wow.  All others she cancelled or
refused since the debates were hurting her (she didn't look so good).  She
claimed that the "format was changed on her" when the sponsor released the
original agreement showing that it had not.
