So, there was this train crash here in japan yesterday.

It was pretty bad as these things go. it was just a shock to me because you know trains in japan are kind of like automatic, clockwork, always on time, clean, etc. etc. one doesn't expect to lose one's life on them, in other words.

It would be like if there was a sudden fatal accident involving a shopping cart or something like that. you just don't look for death from that quarter.

And yes, it could have been naoto. he's in the early morning rush hour commute, too.
