Meta: Will be off-line for two weeks

I won't be posting many articles for the next two weeks (5/12 ~ 5/26) as I'm going off to Akita Prefecture and Hokkaido for some fieldwork in the northern hinterlands of Japan. While I'm sure there will be intermittent internet access, I most probably won't have any time to file any new stories until I get back.

Anonymous comments are automatically moderated for all unregistered users and will most probably have to wait until I get back. If you log in with TypeKey, your comment will go through unmoderated and will be posted immediately.
