The dispute over the sea between Japan and Korea was interesting indeed. I was surpised to hear that they couldn't agree on an specific name in order to allow the rest of the world be able to have consistency for the future when referring to the japanese or korean sea.
NASA's map of North Korea made me wonder how would Africa look at night compared to South America or Europe, the neighboring continents. We do not think much about it, but this night picture of North Korea also makes me value the lights at night we in America have throughout the nation daily.
