Oh wow, deja vu. I got Steamcream in my February Carmine box and absolutely love it. I understand the tons are a Japamese design, so this fund raiser is very appropriate.

What a great cause for Steam Cream to support... I'll certainly be picking one up

Japan has done a wonderful job at getting back to normal. Every bit counts!

what a shame that the money for this good cause is being used for other things than what it was intended for :-(

Japan Fisheries Agency officials admitted that about ¥2.28 billion (US$29 million) would be taken from a ¥500 billion (US$6.4 billion) portion of disaster funds earmarked for fisheries-related spending, approved by Japan's parliament last month.

These monies apparently went to equip the Shonan Maru 2 with unspecified security equipment designed to win the battle against the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society's Ady Gil. This even though 95 percent of Japanese admit to rarely or never eating whale meat and presumably don't give a damn whether whaling continues.
