[SSJ: 7130] Re: The unbearable lightness of the DPJ

I must correct the erroneous impression I may have created that the DPJ invented the minutes-less crisis meeting. Alas, Japan's current ruling party did not introduce that innovation. It seems that minutes have not been kept for high level meetings responding to natural disasters since the 1995 Hanshin earthquake.
