producer of coal in the world...

Do you not want a donut?

...in 1 990, they depended on coal

for 76% of their energy,

and on oil for 17%.

But by 2002, their coal dependency

was reduced to 65%,

and their oil dependency

rose to 24%...

You were having a nightmare.

She stares at me

to make her trust me.

My husband refuses

The company's doing fine.

You've nothing to worry about.

Mr Sasaki...
