I heard on the news it was just a war game error, and both US pilots were
rescued. Every year a bunch of Pacific countries have war games/training
in the Pacific (is that an oxymoron?) and something like this is bound
to happen occasionally, IMO.

By the way, I'm going there (Japan) in July!!! Time to brush up on my
Japanese:
Boku no Nihon-go wa totemo warui desu!
Last summer I made a fool of myself (no surprise there, eh) at a wedding
of a Canadaian man and a Japanese woman, by singing a song, alone,
with a mic, in Japanese. I sang it very very fast, but I don't think
I made any errors...
Zoo-san, zoo-san,
O hana ga nagai no ne,
Soo yo, ka-san mo
Nagai no yo.
It means something like:
Mr. Elephant,
Your nose is long isn't it?
Ya, well that's cuz my mom's nose is long.
Must have been the sake...
Showing off,
Mike
