    There is a Correction associated with this story. The original article was incorrect in stating that the car-maker Toyota was named after its home city. In fact, the city was named after the car-maker. In addition, the photo on page 833 is of Yoshikazu Takeda not Keigo Takeda. These errors have been corrected in this version of the story.
