yeah it's bitterly cold (for L.A.) in the mornings and late evenings...we need an emoticon with a chap warming his fingerless glove wearing hands over an oil drum fire.

That's what is so insane...how can you survive for 3 weeks WITHOUT water (and food).....just a few drops of Korean BBQ sauce a day...that's unheard of.

Exactly. Like I've heard you can survive for a certain duration of time without food, but you absolutely need water to survive that long. Has any more info been released about this? It's a fantastic news story.

That's what I wanna know. You'd think this would be a huge scientific breakthrough, but there doesn't seem to be any hype about it!

Seems impossible. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. What was your source?

TOKYO - Japanese births rose for the first time in six years in 2006, according to government statistics announced Monday, offering a glimmer of hope for a rapidly aging society. Japan's population of 127 million shrank in 2005 for the first time on record, mostly due to a steadily falling birth rate, raising the prospect of a severe labor shortage and difficulties in paying the health bills and pensions of large numbers of elderly. But preliminary data for 2006 showed there were 1.086 million births in Japan last year, 23,000 more than the previous year, the Health Ministry said Monday. Way to go Toshi!!!
