In times of need, when disaster hits, when times are just hard, most local communities all around the world show an amazing degree of helping each other out. Organizations will tell you, that the overriding spontaneous reaction of people is to "pitch in" to give each other a hand in rebuilding and getting things back together. In fact in times of generalized chaos and need, like just after the war, the Japanese showed these qualities to an admirable degree, this feeling of team spirit, and joining forces to get things back to normal. Truly amazing. As things become easier, and people tend to concentrate on their own little circle of family, these ties may weaken though. I think of people in cities having no real idea who their neighbors are, and people's obsession with isolated activities, like the web, and games. I hope that spirit has not weakened and that people care about each other as much as before. And I worry about Tohoku, and Fukushima. Are people really following what's going on? I wonder. What do you think?
