This is only for the sake of closure. However, let me make it clear that the 
only substance of your post is an unfounded personal attack, apparently a 
cheap and mindless form of piling on. In case you didn't notice, I'm sort of 
offended by rank and aggressive stupidity.

Obviously, I can afford 8,500 yen/month, but I still wonder if a better 
bargain is available. I might actually find one, but don't hold your breath 
waiting for me to drop by again to share it with you.
