Speaking of Japan, if you like to see large scale engineering, you really must watch this story from last night's Catalyst, regarding the jaw dropping flood mitigation system that runs under Tokyo.
Sounds dull? No, it's stunning - and not something you are ever likely to have heard of before.
Catalyst has had (with few exceptions) a brilliant run of fascinating stories this year.
But back to Tokyo - here's hoping their drainage system is going to survive the next big earthquake. If it collapsed, I imagine it could affect a lot of what's on the surface above it.
