BTW, when I get bored by continuus dictionary lookup, I am reading in background Stranger in a Strange Land by Heinlein. One my friend gave me that masterpiece, and insisted that I should read it :lol:

Nice to hear of your reading in Japanese, Laboon. I was never so ambitious--or brave?--to read real Japanese literature. I think my greatest accomplishment was a translation of 20,000 Leagues under the Sea, for elementary school children he he he. Well, at least I could read your book's title and author name.
Won't you share some of the story with us--if you like doing that kind of thing.
