I always thought that's the way they were written but on these Japanese website they are written as if they were from left to right, top to bottom.

Well to understand you have to understand that RakeRon generally can't go into somebody's house without trying to tinker with their computer. So picture a large hairy Italian man spooning in a pool with somebody who for all intents and purposes looks like an adult-sized version of a ten year old boy crooning "Oh Ron, I feel so safe in your arms.", and you'll get a fair approximation of how this is working out for me. Add in all the other problems that have struck me since last night and you'll understand why I'm angry.

TYPOS! I dislike typos! Anywho, Chinese write from top to bottom right to left but Japanese write bottom to top right to left.

Heh. Hm, does anyone know if Japanese characters are written right to left or left to right?

Right to left, I think. Good friend of mine (same bloke with huge music collection) is studying Japanese at Durham. He spent his last year out there in the land of the Japanese, and returns in a coupla weeks Anyway, I think it's right to left fronm what I remember of seeing him do stuff for his course.

That's... scary...

Yes, I just looked it up. It's right to left or top-to-bottom first and then right-to-left in columns.

And lately he's been acting like a real dick, giving really noncommital answers when we try to get things straight with what's going on so we can game, we only get maybes; of course that's when he answers his phone, of course. he seems very dodgy lately, and the food fund isn't helping things either.
