We fancy the thought of having a home or even more a virtual planet of our own out here in cyber space. Many questions have been raised on the purpose of this planet. To that, the answer is that we citizens wish only to share the little knowledge and ideas of ours. Naturally, we would indeed welcome comments and thoughts on matters on our planet. No man is an island, and no planet is a solar system.

Forgiven but not forgotten

It's very sad to see human beings committing heinous crimes against their fellow human kind.

The Nanjing Massacre took place when the Japanese invaded China in 1937 where up to 300,000 civilians were raped and killed.

Read here for a write-up on the current bickering between the affected nations.

So do you feel a pain in your guts as you eat sushi while listening to mp3s from your latest Sony player as you drive your Honda? Probably not, I guess.

Have we forgiven the Japs for their crimes during WW2? Yes.
Have we forgotten the atrocities the Japs inflicted on the people? No.
