It looks as though Mr Fleming had a better insight into the Japanese character than we knew! I never took the "poison garden" plot in "You Only Live Twice" very seriously until I found this video on Youtube today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FDSdg09df8
"The Aokigahara Forest is the most popular site for suicides in Japan. People take their own lives there at a rate of 50 to 100 deaths a year. The authorities sweep for bodies only on an annual basis, as the forest sits at the base of Mt. Fuji and is too dense to patrol more frequently."
Yipes!
