DG: Well, what I hear you saying, too, that you want your grandkids to have some of the discipline of the Japanese --

GF: That's right.

DG: -- education.

GF: That's the reason why they go to Japanese school. I don't know how much they learn over there or anything like that, but daughter always come in and, "Hey Grandpa, what does this mean in Japanese," or, "How do you say it in Japanese?"

DG: So do you think it's important for us to preserve some of our Japanese heritage?

GF: I think so. We're Japanese, I don't care what you say. We're going to have black hair and yellow skin, you can't do... unless they mix up together.
