Gene & Jean,

Thank you very much for your concern - we are both OK!!  When the
earthquake broke out, I, Kenji, was at home and saw many books and CDs
fell down from shelves.  In the morning Noubuko went out for shopping in
downtown Tokyo, and she had just got off the train at Hanno Station where
we live after shopping.  TV report says all the train became not
operational right after the earthquake and will not be in operation until
tomorrow morning.  If Nobuko were to take next train, she won't be able
to get back home until tomorrow.  We were both lucky.  Aftershocks keep
coming many times - more than 10 times!

We tried to talk with our son and his wife on the phone to make sure they
are OK because they live in Iwate Prefecture which is the closed area
from the hypocenter.  However, all phone calls are now restricted only to
emergency governmental and other official calls - no private phone calls.
 We still don't know how they are doing, and we will keep trying to
contact with them.  Cross your fingers for us.

We have many good round dance friends out there, and we of course worry
about them very much.  We however have no mean to contact with them at
this moment.  We might have to wait awhile until everything starts settle
down.

Thank you again for your concern on behalf of our friends in nothern part
of Japan.

Kenji
