Yep, both are in the process of being sued. Unfortunately, the linked article was on a website I didn't feel was acceptable for a variety of reasons.
“I remember when I was in high school there was a lot more snow,” says Tanikawa [Vice President of the Toyama Prefectural Road Public Corporation], who is now 50. “In the morning snow fell and it would fall all day while we were at school. When I came back home there would be 40 to 50 centimeters of snow to clear.”
“My children,” Tanikawa adds, “have not had that experience.”
I was astounded; 40 to 50 centimeters of snow is about 16 to 20 inches, and I wondered if it had ever snowed enough—and more importantly, the snow having outpaced the snowplows—for Tanikawa to have experienced a snow day as a child.
The answer of course, was no.

I hope there is more snow than that when I get to Japan next winter.
Heh, you want MORE?
According the linked article this region of Japan--Toyama--is the snowiest part of Japan and arguably of the whole world.

I think I just found out where we will be snowboarding next year. Thanks

Paul and John look stoned out of their gourds, unless the cameraman caught them with their eyes closed.

Do you have to assemble it yourself?
