I was wondering how this would go. Will this tip the scale towards Hawaii or away from Hawaii?
We have a lot of friends (expats etc) in Japan who are heading back this way until Japan gets it back together. It would seem like Hawaii could become a home away from home until infrastructure is rebuilt, and basic things like water, and food are available.
