I liked reading "The Box" about the transition to container shipping. It was interesting to see this totally-unrelated-to-our-times process from the outside. From our place in time, container shipping is obvious. At the time, to p

Well, related to women getting professional jobs, I've also been told that Japanese women don't want to sign up for life with Japanese men. Women get the coffee, etc.

The worst thing about those kinds of EVs is the "generic alien orchestra" sounds they make in the parking lot. It is sort of bland-nonoffensive like motel 6 artwork.
