LOL. I heard a friend of mine in Vancouver told me that when people saw Asians on the street, they stayed as far as 10 yards away<g>. And I decided to postpone my trip to China, not that I myself afraid, just do not want to be an outcast after I come back<g>.

And we know what increases the panic, don't we? Media, media, media.

We sure are feeling the tourist pinch here. I spent the afternoon on the beach with my friend Rocky, the "Beach Boy" who runs a Catamaran off Waikiki, and he is down 70%. Coconut Willies has almost no Japanese Tourists showing up. The Japanese just won't come until the war is over.
