Good link, thanks Wally.

Yes, I'm a gaijin, I have no plans to go get Japanese citizenship. It probably wouldn't even matter if i did and it ever came to blows between this country and the US again, I'd be sushi. Rajan, looking at some convection heaters, it looks like they were made for one thing, heat. Mostly I'm...

I can easily crack open a door if more ventilation is needed. Yeah my neighbor, when I first was contemplating moving into the place, the farmer went around and tried to get some organization going against the idea of a foreigner in their midst. He couldn't get much of a following. His wife...
