Saturo met me at the station and gave me a ride to the institute. Then he, Kamiisi and Hirashima drove me all around town to show me my apt and run errands to get me settled. It took me about 20 minutes to get unpacked and even tho the apt is 200 sqft, it seems very large. They took me out for sushi last night so I have not had a chance to explore Nagaoka. However, it is very nice and is located near the mountains. In fact, the institute is nestled right in the foothills.

Now the research begins. The project is somewhat simple, but I think we will see interesting results in the short time I am here. We will go through the equipment tomorrow and begin running tests on Friday. They have asked me to make a presentation to introduce myself on Friday. I think I have it all figured out, but am open to suggestions. Remember that I am in the future now so suggestions must be made by the about midday Thursday.

So, that's all I can come up with this early..I'll think of more things and add them if I remember. Have fun researching snow.
I think you should tell them about the time you beat me for the AZ state line.
