Random notes from Japan

Yes, there are Halloween decorations all over Tokyo...any excuse for a holiday, I guess.

Y100 is worth about $1.60. Dollar coins are very convenient. We should have some.

Most things in Japan are very polite and very efficient, You pay for it all. It's (almost) worth it.

99% of taxis in Tokyo run on CNG. We're at about 20 % of SF taxis. We can do better.

"Green" beer is non-alcoholic. It's getting very popular in Japan.

Tokyo streets are, almost uniformly, clean, well signed, and smooth. Green asphalt for walking, red asphalt for stopping. No potholes anywhere.

Old San Francisco

I'm thinking that may be a pic of North Beach and the hill now under Coit Tower.
