Hi Vince; How very nice to hear back from you again. It was ages since last we heard about you. How are you?. How is your child?. He must be grown up a bit since last time you told us about him. No, I don't live in Japan. I'm always in Edinburgh, Scotland. Mike from this group is the one who lives in Kyoto. And Fumiko a colleague and years friend who lives in Tokyo. It's through Fumiko (not in the zen forum) but personal emails that the distressful news from Japan reached first my boyfriend and myself. She expressed the wish to leave Tokyo just when the first reactor of the central nuclear started to experience troubles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UZuNI7Yk2k Fumiko was correct in her fear and there was an explosion of first reactor. Since then more reactors had troubles. But I know all the rest of the rest news through the you tube news. She then only sent a personal note to all her friends all over the world for us to spread it everywhere. Although Tokyo appears tranquil, there is fear in the Japanese population of radiation being already in some areas of the city. She showed gratitude for all concerning about her Country. She told us at the moment she won't be able to be in contact but that she will be as soon as the conditions will be appropriate for her to do so. Good day to you and your child Mayka --- On Sun, 20/3/11, Vince <[email protected]> wrote:
