jayLooks like I won't be completely alone next week! I now have a second (after boubabe, who is too far away on Hokkaido) contact in Japan. At the IAF congress in 1999, I chatted several times with a young female university student who was intensely interested in space exploration. We exchanged e-mail addresses, and she invited me to contact her if I ever visited the country. So, whimsically, I sent an email to her old address... and she replied! She's finished grad school, lives near Shibuya, is now working at Sony on wireless networking, was planning to attend the Nara conference on her own on Wednesday, and wants to get together in Tokyo.
And I'm also renting a cellphone with SMS while over there... email me if you'd like the number.
