I'm happy to put something positive on Punatalk!

Ill take your word for it, though when I suggested the same thing to my father before when I was younger he was somewhat offended and proceeded to explain why it was not the same, an explanation I wont argue with you, his family is samurai. I would argue the Chinese are very authoritarian and not afraid to jump to such measures immediately where the Japanese seem to refrain. If it is Confucianism it is very different from China. Both China and Japan are very different from the way they were.

This is not Puna related, sorry Rob, although somehow I bet this bothers him less then most of the stuff I talk about

Edit: Found an applicable article:
