I get my info on Japan from my son's girl friend.

She's half Filipino and half Chinese

Taro, > Seven - in Japanese 'shin' - also as the prefix 'shin-' means Death! In Japan hotels have no 7th floor just like our hotels skip the 13th floor

And in Chinese, the number four has the same character as "death." In China (and Korea), some buildings don't even have a 4th floor.

Your point?
