You know what, Tom?

I think the Japanese are gonna screw up this space mission
like they did every deep-space mission they've attempted since 1990.
They don't put in enough bucks [yen] into their interplanetary program
to warrant or encourage success.

They're gonna faiil again.
Hold me to this forecast if you want.
