It seems that convicted mass murderer Shoko Asahara is in the headlines (see
examples at http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&q=asahara ). Looking up
the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoko_Asahara I was somewhat
annoyed to see that it reads rather hagiographical. Lots of talk about
Asahara's achievements as a religious teacher, but very little criticism.
The article in its present form is not likely to generate much public
admiration for the quality of our work.

My apologies for bothering the list with this, as the matter should normally
be referred to peer review et al.; however I thought it might be a little
urgent. I am afraid I won't be able to help myself, as I know next to
nothing about the person and the relevant sources are likely to be in
Japanese.
