Not mentioned in the Bush article: Japan is finally telling the US to gtf out of their country, so 8,000 troops formerly stationed in Okinawa are moving to a new US base very near that marine reserve.
Also, I've come this close to using Zopa on both the lending and borrowing side over the last couple of years, but have never gone through with it. I may use it to lend at some point in the future, because it sounds awesome - although in some ways I'd prefer to go with third world microloans (if there's somewhere that allows me to do that).
