In 1941 dollars the cost to the Japs of the attack AND the damage done probably wasn't $135 million.

Got to love that term "Jap". If my grandmothers use it their seen as the "Greatest Generation". I use it and I'm accused of being "culturally insensitive".

Being a Harley rider, I used to refer to Japanese bikes as "Jap Bikes." Then I got a little education on what the American interment camps for the Japanese were like. Not to mention both my dentists are Japanese. These are not people I wanna piss off . . . . aside from the fact they and their families are both regular customers.
