Did you know that Jack Halpern, editor of various kanji dictionaries, is an enthusiast?Yeah, Mr. Halpern is also famous within the unicycling community. When you add together that I'm involved in both of the fields he tends to have made a name in (unicycling and Japanese/kanji), I invariably come across his name relatively often. But yeah, I think it's pretty cool what he's done for both fields.

Edit: Okay, I just read your blog.
The question still stands.
cerulean Wrote:Heh, I wish I had a skill like that to offer.Agreed. I like bicycles enough that a unicycle has always been a dream... Sadly, it's a dream I don't seem to have time for. Maybe I'll make time. -ponder- Not a big one, though. That's insane.
