He was the chief engineer of the redesigned Camry of 2002...almost 15 years after the Camry was introduced to the US market and the World. I don't have to prove shit. If you somehow want to disparove what I say...go for it...especailly when it comes to the auto business...especially the auto business in the US. Go for it? :corn:
you havent proved anything so how can i "disparove" what you've typed?
The original 1982 Camry was designed by the Japanese.

Which implies that U.S forces are the only international contingent helping out in the wake of the Japanese tsunami, which they aren't. Though once again you moved the goalposts as soon as you realized your 'argument' was moot. Because as you know, we were talking about the capability of countries other than the U.S to drop bombs on people, which you dismissed.
Anyway, read on...
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/ma ... an-tsunami
Around 500 rescue and relief specialists and 30 rescue dogs from around the world have arrived in Japan to help search for survivors.
The contingent includes 63 fire service search and rescue specialists from the UK, who took up to 11 tonnes of rescue equipment, including heavy lifting and cutting equipment, two rescue dogs and a medical support team, and two teams from the US, comprising almost 150 people and dogs trained to detect live victims.
Some members of the UK team have recently returned from Christchurch in New Zealand, which was hit by an earthquake last month. They are due to begin their search at first light tomorrow.
Countries still deeply affected by natural disasters or political unrest – including Pakistan, New Zealand, Afghanistan and Bolivia – are among those offering aid and support. China, which is engaged in a border dispute with Japan and views its neighbour with deep suspicion, is among the 17 Asian states that have pledged help, offering $4.5m (£2.8m) in aid.
The first shipment of emergency materials, including 2,000 blankets, 900 tents and 200 emergency lights, was due to be flown from Shanghai to Tokyo today. New Zealand, meanwhile, has sent a 65-strong search and rescue team.Post edited by Byrnzie on0 -

dude, you're making yourself into the laughing stock of this forum
you said "You also realize that the Camrys and Accords (the best selling cars in the world) are actually produced by Americans."
first of all they arent the best selling cars in the world... so I should know at this point you know fuck-all about the auto industry. (its actually the Corolla)
secondly you said "The Camry's and Accords were designed by AMerican designers and engineers actually. They were cars designed specifically for the AMerican public and then boomed worldwide."
no they werent. Toyota designed the Camry V10 for the Japanese market. But they exported it worldwide.

Look at your comment quoted above: 'US forces are STILL there trying to help with the mess.' You were talking about how the whole World depends on, and is at the mercy of, the U.S. Your comment implies that Japan would have been helpless without assistance from the U.S. Which just happens to be pure crap.0 -

dont need to... i know... you didnt actually say what era of Camry but I gave you the name of the CE of the latest model.
now you still cant make up an american name for the designer of the 1st Camry.... plus, and i've quoted it for prosterity, you also said the first camry was designed by an american and for the american public.
this is wrong, unless you can prove otherwise, as it's just you saying mental shit...
its like saying the moon is made of cheese, and then when confronted with evidence its not, just doingand saying "go on dunkman, google it" ... its as petty and infantile as that.

you notice how he bypasses the information that it was the most watched TV event in US history... yet 13 posts ago he said no one cares about it...

You're right. I stand corrected. The ceremony was actually already well over when it was played here. They delayed the ending replayed here in favor of a comedy. So they delayed the delay...a double whammy.:fp:

Wow. :fp: Stay away from google and the few points you can pull out and try to quote (should have realized that when you tried with the Kenichiro Fuse reference like I wouldn' know). The corolla is the best selling car in the world (and the history of the automotive business for that matter) because it has been on sale for almost 50 years!:fp: That's cumulative. Check your numbers since the Camry and Accord have been on sale in the US. I'll wait for you to eat your luch and then get back to random google searches. Try again.
I believe the "camry" essentially as we know it came out around 86...maybe 87...I'll need to check that...essentially before that is was a transformation of the Celica platform.

That's a great goal actually. Unfortunatley you'll be second there to the US.

:? Where did I imply anything? WHat I said is when shit like this goes down everyone looks to the US wondering what we will do. Thta's pretty much what I said. :fp:

Great logic....did you make it out of school with this logic? :fp:I would rather have you find the name and post it...oh wait I thought you already did? His name is Kenichiro Fuse correct?
Let's try your logic out and see how it goes. I can lift 1000 pounds...now prove me wrong DUnkman. Balls in your court!0 -

so the worlds best selling cars last year then? or year to date may 2011 to may 2012... or whatever month it is you can show that proves your theory... The Corolla is the biggest selling car of 2011... Ford Focus was second.
you will need to check that as it was rolled out back in 1983oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.0 -

Actually, this is the equivalent of me sitting at home, watching the t.v, and deciding to change channels just before the end of the Olympics closing ceremony, and then claiming to have somehow tampered with, or delayed the Olympics closing ceremony.
It's called ego-centrism. It can also be referred to as delusions of grandeur.
Which brings us back to the original point which generated the last 15 pages of this thread, before you began trying to convince everyone that the U.S is at the forefront of everyone's thoughts, and is the greatest thing in the history of mankind.
And it brings us back to my original question on page two of this thread, which, at the risk of a huge generalization, went something like this: Could it be that the prevalence of mass shootings in the U.S is in some way connected to how an abnormal amount of Americans appear to suffer from delusions of grandeur, and the feeling that they're living lives something akin to 'The Truman Show', which regards popularity, notoriety, and fame, as the pinnacles of human achievement? The U.S is saturated with mass media - more so than any other country I've visited. Is there a connection between all the Pop Idol bullshit, all the fear and violence generated daily by the media, and all these mass shootings that keep occurring over there?
Wasn't this point made in the movie 'Natural Born Killers'?
Is the U.S suffering from a form of collective Narcissistic personality disorder?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissist ... idemiology
Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder[1] in which the individual is described as being excessively preoccupied with issues of personal adequacy, power, prestige and vanity...First formulated in 1968, it was historically called megalomania, and it is closely linked to egocentrism.Post edited by Byrnzie on0
