Hurray for whales! Hurray for mankind! We just pray that our future generations will be able to appreciate and admire creations of such beautiful creatures of the sea.

Don't we realise that there are so many luxuries that nature has provided, that we need not have to look for 'exotic' food for our dinner table?

Doesn't history teach us to be content with 3 meals, meals that are sufficient for our nourishment.

For that matter, does the Japanese people remember that at the end of World War II, it is just fortunate just to have rice and staple food? Same for the people in America during the Great Depression, and the very similar things that are happening in places like Aftica NOW?

Oh, love our neighbours as ourselves, and love the environment too' including whales!

It's nice to hear some good news for a change. Perhaps Japan can now forget the whole thing and become respected again.

Send your money to Greenpeace - they are great. I support them as much as I can.
