Dear Manoli, Hi, Hope you remeber your best Japanese friend. Your presentation seems striking because this data will evoke Japanese parents to make their children slim and nice. If with a data of their record at school with significant difference in a favourable way, the data will be epoch making and the many governments that suffer metabolic syndrome in their people, will really appreciate. Anyhow, I look forward to seeing you tomorrow. I am (we are) going to have a presentation on Tuesday pm and Wednes day morning. Best wishes, Hiroo wadagh@ks.kyorin-u.ac.jp wadagh-tky@umin.net
