Actually, I had heard similar story at NASA meeting in Houston.  When I
was enjoying conversation with someone comming from India, he has
once been in Japan, an oldman disturbed us, and said to the Indian "Don't
talk with him, he will steel from you!".  I was much frustrated by his words.
What relation must be there me and someone Japanese who might have
done something wrong to him?  I hate such an attitude of such redneck!

I hope you would not be such stupid redneck. ^_^

well, i did a 'small' one when i was first in japan.  a major
kernel bug, but trivial really.  sVr2:

    can i have a copy of the code?

    err, yeah, but you won't modify it?

    no, no, just to look at it.

of course i'd modified it, to fix a fragmentation in the stupid
swap management code.  one sheet of paper -- it had fragmentation
written all over it.

heads were on guillotines and i'd told to go and not come
back till it was fixed, so i fixed it, violating japanese
meeting protocol.

they were happy, but i was instructed to never to do it again.

hara kiri city :-)
