Also as a frequent visitor, I'll post my favorite money and time saving travel tip. Get a JR East rail pass *before* you travel to Japan. It's much cheaper that way. Surf to http://www.jreast.co.jp/eastpass/index.htm to find out details.
I would also plan ahead as much as possible as we will be arriving a couple of weeks after the World Cup and many tourist activities may be booked up. Sorry for the tourist interruption. Now back to the recurring NAT complaints and WG sniping that spill onto to the IETF list. At 10:54 AM 3/21/2002, Ole J.
