Dear Bede,
Thank you for your advice.
I had been knowing existence of JMRC for some time.Since it took 30 minutes
per hour by train to Ueno where the regular meeting is held from Fujisawa
in which I live, it was not able to participate easily.However, thanks to
your advice, I determined participating in the meeting of JMRC.
