English literacy is pretty high there. I lived there for eight years and didn’t really need to read much Kanji. They actually do use a Latinate script called Romaji (thank heaven, or I’d have been lost in a hundred rural train stations!)

I see. My point is that these things werene't just written in English, they were written in English without being written in Japanese as well.

If you were Japanese and you were marooned in a destroyed town after an earthquake, wouldn't you at least include the Japanese translation? Hmmm . . .
