          Looking forward to this... really enjoy the short essay style. Will make it easier and more rewarding to discuss, I think.

                  Does anyone have a copy of the original Japanese text? I think that it might come in mighty handy at times....

                        I second what John wrote...so, absolutely!

                        And if I may suggest (as I think Shawn already did on Facebook or Google+), just jump right in with the current chapters as you can always go back to the earlier ones later.

                        Glad to have you with us!
