- I agree that Dave's Japan book was not up to par.
- I did not appreciate the chapter on Hiroshima, and can't for the life of me
- figure out why he put that in.
- Also (and does anyone want to back me up on this) I noticed a lot more
- 'juvenile'-type
- humor, like using the words 'booger' and 'fart' too often too get a laugh.
- Any comments?
