Thanks for tuning in again. A cool but sunny day here in the Carolina Midlands. No program last week. Just too much going on here. Including building a new computer to produce audio files. Let's hope it improves the sound.
This week we consider the nuclear weapons "discussion discussion" that North Korea's nuclear test last month has inspired, and what it all means. Then we turn our attention to Japan's response to the U.S. midterm elections. Quite a bit to learn from that, I think. And finally, consider the longer-term significance of a scandal that's erupted over the Kantei planting question-askers in the Town Meetings held to discuss revision of Japan's basic education law.
And, not to be forgotten, North Carolina's Wind Riders now have their CD for sale on a site called "CD Baby." I've been assured by reliable sources that this is a well known, and legitimate site. Click on http://cdbaby.com/cd/windriders to view their ad.
