Hi All,
I emailed Tomo Miura as soon as it happened and he has been in touch with
me. Him and his family are also fine since they are located much further
south in Miyazaki. He was waiting to hear from some family and friends in
the affected area so hopefully he has made contact by now and they are safe.
It's nice to see that the other Japanese colleagues are safe as well and we
have a great network to share info. in times like these.

>> Hi all,
