>Hind sight is 20/20
Hmmm... Nothing hind-sighty about diminishing, non-renewable resources that are being used up at a progressively higher rate. Simple math.
>It was just an exogenous shift.
If you observe the sun through the day, you will know for sure that at some point it will set. Simple observation and geometry.
>Fortituous for the Japanese.
Japanese students have been consistently WAY beyond American students in math for decades. If you meant
fortuitous, there really isn't any of that in simple probability calculations and calculus.
Americans were able to get a man to the moon, so SOMEONE here knows math (or was it the scientists imported from Germany who did the math?), but even today the leadership in this country (and many of its industries) can't do simple math, such as "x amount of additional carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere will raise the Earth's temperature by y degrees." Speaking of which, Kyoto happens to be in Japan, too...

?????
I don't follow this simple logic.
