My ex girlfriends mother used to be a nurse in one of these clinics, she would comment that the barium meal (or whatever it is they use in the UK) would glow in the dark and when you go for a Wii in the night, you can be sure of where the toilet is.....
That is awesome, going to have to have a play with that, I have giant man-hands so not very good at it, but it makes a change from those cheap Star Wars pre-cut papercraft kits I was doing for my son over Christmas.
Aaaw man so buying this, I love Range Murata's work, as soon as I saw the cover for this in the thumbnail for the article I recognised the work and knew I was going to have to slap down some cash.
I have a 486 DX4-25 laptop with 4MB RAM and the same hard drive, it's an incredibly fast machine (for what it does) I really need to buy a new PCMCIA or serial floppy drive for it though so I can load up some DOS games.
These have been around for decades, the sugar content in the "liquor" is that high (it's more like a syrup) you will be sick long before you get drunk.
I think Japan is missing a potentially decent market in things like properly subtitled dorama. I download tons of fansubs and would love to buy a proper PAL boxset of them with English subtitles. It's funny in some they even take the mick out of thei...
I had no problems with cash machines, if you find a 7-Bank machine you can use your UK debit cards fine, and the ATM's in the convenience stores are always open. Forget about the fee's if you are there on holiday, they are that small it's not worth w...
Not all Japanese portions are tiny though, I had a few meals like Udon where the portion would have fed me 3 times over. I sat there struggling with mine while watching in amazement at tiny Japanese women downing the same size bowl in half the time.
Strangely I never went up there when I was in Tokyo, but I was walking around about 3am one night with my camera and took some photo's:

Works on my Windows Mobile phone, the page isn't fullscreen (even though my phone is double the iPhone's resolution) but it's better than trying to load the full site.
Good work!
Very nice!
Currently thinking of a new camera for myself, probably another Pentax (K7) so I can use my current lenses.
Here's my current regular use cameras:

I used to belong to an actual shooting club in the UK (air and small caliber rifles) before it all got shut down after the Dunblane incident (Scotland).
Was a shame as I really enjoyed it, so when we went to America last year I made a point of going...
I saw him/her in Akihabara for some event at a store, some 14 year old moron kept coming up to him/her and tapping him on the head. Those attendees seemed more shocked than if the kid pulled out an assault rifle and started shooting people.
I think this moght be cool if you made a Chobits Dolfie, that way you could do the scanning lines across the eyes when they are doing something computery. That is assuming they can be animated and aren't just one OLED.
I'm amazed nobody came out with a Shenmue comment yet!
I swear, if I ever went to Dobuita/Yokosuka I would be so geeked out my brain would fry. I'm not sure I wouldn't be able to resist a "do you know where I can find some sailors?" or "do you remem...
I understand completely mate, I have written sites from scratch before, and don't relish the idea of going back and hacking my code to make it half decent across all platforms.
