Wow. - IQ70, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Just look at his father's resume. He can set up any project he wants for his kid. Besides Ace Hardware collaborates on recycling on toxic chemicals and wastes.

Hilo businessman, WAYNE K. KAMITAKI, has been elected to the board of directors of the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawai'i, replacing retired judge Ricki May Amano, who was named the organization's president and executive director in May. Kamitaki is chief executive officer of the family-owned, Maui Varieties Ltd., and its subsidiaries — including Ben Franklin Crafts stores in Hawai'i, and a chain of Ace Hardware stores on the Big Island, Maui, Kaua'i and in Las Vegas. He is also chief volunteer officer for the Big Island YMCA and volunteer director of the Hawai'i Japanese Center in Hilo. - tomboy501, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Parents being involved in their kid's future is exactly how it should work. This takes nothing away from his son's accomplishment.
- ZenMojo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Rock it, Big Island, rock it hard!
- Helfax, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7God.. I need to get out more. I read the headline and thought it said.. "Hawaiian Teen Named America's Top Model".
I thought.. Really? Photo please.
Ugh. /unplugs power cable - ricree, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3No kidding. Unfortunately, the TV audience just isn't there.
- Kiljoy001, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I too live on Oahu, and yes most mokes here hate school, science or anything that has to do with learning. They are too busy thinking that the big bucks are in construction jobs only and shoot only that high (for the males anyway). I'm 26 now and it seems just about over half of the girls I went to school with are already married and/or have(ing) kids it's bizarre (well to me anyway) It just seems they are doing all that stuff too early and according to what they have to say it just seems hellish - the housing boom has killed off cheap rent down here, and it seems the price of everything just goes up and up and up. I'm born and raised in Hawaii but I'm really glad I'm moving out of state this coming month.
And my two cents for all the haoles that want to live in Hawaii... fo'get it bruddah. It's not all that, trust me. - geminitojanus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2It's gotta be something in the water or the soil. The whole Pacific rim is teeming with smart people! Maybe the arsenic has something to do with it.
- khaos34, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0tracer2000, I haven't been up the stairs yet - I see it almost all the time though. I live below it in Kaneohe but never took the time.
I don't think everyone here hates science btw, it's just not made exciting or no one can relate. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I was 13 when I was in 8th grade. That's not fair. He's a year older.
- ilferetl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0of course he's older, that happens when time passes. if you'd read the article, it said he went through a number of science fairs before finally winning this one
- hawaiianpunch, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Hawaii grows good peeps like me and that other brainy dude.
- tracer200, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I visited Oahu 4 months ago, have either of you climbed the Haiku Stairs (stairway to heaven)? Its the 3,922 step steel structure from the bottom of the Haiku Valley, near Kaneohe on the windward side of O`ahu. Nowhere else in the world is there a ladder-way from gulch bottom to mountain top, scaling a nearly vertical cliff, ending at a spectacular overlook 2,800 feet above the valley. I took many pictures on my illegal climb up the stairway, it was the most awsome thing I have ever done. Here are my pictures, they are very awsome.

The next page also has good pictures. - Kiljoy001, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Sorry, Hawaii is filled with rich people - compared to the mainland. We make more money but we have to spend more to get by however. Rich parents or not, this kid earned his award. There is a lot of environmental chemical poisoning that went on during the sugar cane days down here. Most of the time no one knew it mattered other times, it was because it did not seem to be such a big deal. In fact it still isn't a big deal, and no one really raises a stink about it unless it was either blatant, or not noticeably killing rare wildlife.
- IQ70, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1It would have been okay if the parent was not trying to show that the kid was public school educated and from Hawaii. Those 2 things also did not make the kid any less smarter.
It just sends a message that you have to be a rich influential father's kid to buy your awards. - hrdcregmer808, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Aww I live in oahu.... Oh well, funny thing is everyone here hates science... Personally I like it =)
- StanleyKoolPrik, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Yeah, its so horrible in Hawaii. Arsenic everywhere! Stay away round-eyes.
...fart.
