For what it's worth, wotmania.com is now an Asian site with recycling tips Cannoli Send a noteboard - 29/05/2019 09:14:40 PM

I visited an old site I had not been to for several years, which itself has not been updated since 2012, and it had a link on the side to wotmania. The link now takes on to a site with Oriental text, that to my inexpert eye looks not quite Chinese, and not Korean at all. Maybe Japanese, but I honestly don't know. Japanese seems to have some characters that are less busy, for lack of a better word, and Korean has lots of little circles. But I wouldn't bet the life of someone I'd miss either way. But using the translate feature of the browser reveals a bunch of suggestions and questions about recycling. Clicking on any of the text takes you to an aroma therapy website, whose URL is www.stationmasters.com.

When I was a kid and everyone was afraid of the Japanese & other Asians buying up our cherished cultural icons, I don't think they had this in mind.

There is no such thing as "simplified Japanese". It's just Japanese. Tom - 31/05/2019 04:48:37 AM 706 Views
Well, I figured Japanese. The typed font looks odd to me... Jeordam - 31/05/2019 04:51:23 PM 694 Views
This is serious business. Don't ever casually guess about foreign script again. Narg - 31/05/2019 05:47:20 PM 693 Views
Heh. I mean...I did think it was Japanese... Jeordam - 31/05/2019 06:57:59 PM 675 Views

It's Japanese. No question. *NM* Tom - 31/05/2019 04:37:00 AM 417 Views
Yep, it is Japanese. A combination of Kanji and Hiragana script. HyogaRott - 02/06/2019 05:27:56 PM 866 Views
My initial assessment was that it was Hiragana but I wasn't certain. Rebekah - 03/06/2019 09:25:32 PM 1003 Views
