Start of a long day, and the focus then turned to the evening papers...
many of them jumped to conclusions...

◆Tokyo air pollution victims to settle suit with central gov't
TOKYO, June 15 KYODO
Hundreds of asthma patients are certain to settle a damages suit with the central government and a state-run toll road operator over air pollution caused by emissions from diesel-powered motor vehicles in Tokyo, a lawyer for the plaintiffs said Friday.
Lawyer Takao Nishimura told a news conference that the plaintiffs are also highly likely to reach a settlement with the Tokyo metropolitan government which is scheduled to offer its own anti-pollution measures Monday.
In the afternoon the court said they will set forth its proposal to settle the lawsuit on the 22nd. Now I'm given a week to feel some relief... but not much... Hell will begin from Monday anyways with so many things to cover waiting for us!
