Hayame Zero 05/28/19 12:05:25 AM #1:	I'm studying abroad in Japan, and a classmate was reading the podium in front of a decimated building they've kept retained. She was saying how sad it was, and turned to me and asked "who dropped the bombs?" I just paused and said our country did, and she was shocked. After we got out of the museum, she was talking to another student who informed her it was in 1945. She just said verbatim "oh wow, that wasn't that long ago. I figured it was a couple hundred years ago or something". Then someone said something about wondering if Nagasaki had a memorial for the one dropped there as well, and she yelled "THERE WERE TWO?!" I mean...at least she's educated on it now, I guess. --- ...I think I'm done here... <cite>Hayame Zero posted [p:922457513] in So, a girl...
