<<<<You cannot stimulate a corpse!>>>>> Japan's economy is fascinating to me. They are so unusual in a number of ways that to compare their economy to ours is just wrong. Do you have anything written lately about their banking problems? I would like to read up on this. I did see a chart yesterday (Scientific American) of the number of the patents filed last year - comparing other countries to America. Japan was a runaway leader over the rest of the world. Germany was a distant second. So they must be putting significant money into R&D? Their camera technology is running away from the rest of the world.
