Mindmeld, > Do you remember the Japanese era when a bunch of US real estate ended up being owned by Japan?

I sure do. Same doom-n-gloom predictions back in the 70's and 80's of a Japanese takeover. Hollywood even played up these fears.

I was just reading about the history of Saleen and how it was born during the times of uncertainty in the American auto industry, when cheap, fuel-efficient Japanese imports were gaining on the American Big Three. That was back in the 70's, during the Arab oil embargo.

Unlike me, history loves to repeat itself.
