Doesn't surprise me that it's Kitsune, fitting the whole thing nicely.

Got the facebook invite from Yori, so it looks like I will have to set up an account for that identity as I already have one for my "real" self..

You don't expect me to use a real name do you? Besides, old habits die hard...

I hope that you arent too busy
we can chat another time if you are at work
me: sorry. i'm okay. it's easy-going here. i've never been to tokyo, either and would love to...is that where you are? cali is wonderful!
i can't believe it's 1:30 and you
just got home from work!!!!
why are you at work so late? what do you do there?
yori: Japanese society is very different, pretty much everyone is expected to stay late working anywhere. you can 'officiall' leave earlier, however there is the peer pressure that you are the only one leaving early
and then you do not get a better post for not 'being one of the team'
I am just a secretary, however i have to comute to the Takeda complex
Which is not in tokyo
is an hour and a half north of tokyo
me: oh, wow! what a commute! i am like a secretary here, too...but i've just started doing purchasing and i really like it.
yori: purchasing?
like in stocks?
me: so, are you only in the takeda complex part of the day? where else do you work? isn't your company also involved in germany? i've been to berlin and munich and thought it was really beautiful!
oh, no...not stocks. we're a scientific research and development company and I purchase chemicals and raw materials as well as machinery
yori: the takeda complex is the HQ and research locating for the takeda company. Which is a subsidiary of Junker Corp
however I am sure that the new president will remove the company
me: what does Junker Corp do? i saw their billboard on a pic you sent
yeah. who's the new pres? aren't you scared with all that's been going on there? a murder in your office?
yori: Oh, former president akira did not die in my office
everyone is really sure that it was not murder
he was 89 years old too
me: oh. thank goodness! was he elderly?
probably natural causes? still that 's so sad.
did you like him? i'm always worried when things change like that in my office. do you know the replacement?
yori: I buy things too, I remember last year I was in charge of buying an ASIMO robot
me: what's an ASIMO?
how fun!
sounds like we do a lot of similar things
and what's a silverman koi?
yori: mmmh... is an advanced robot by Honda.
the silverman koi?
Well it happened on my first days here
so i know very little
me: what does the robot do? we do robotics here
yori: same here!
Takeda Robotics INternational
me: why do you capitalize the IN?
I noticed that with the ATheNA poster contest too
yori: because my computer messes up when i type into the english
me: oh
i did a poster last night and it's not nearly as great as yours, but i'm still thinking of entering just for fun. my job is not too creative and it's fun to get that part of my brain working
yori: I think thats because the name means something
A.TheN.A.
i think is short for something
A.TheN.A.
i think is short for something
I am sorry my computer is messing up
it says that you did not receive my chat
me: no that makes sense. i've just been wondering. i did receive your chat
yori: the thing is actually A.TheN.A. is a name that is shorter for something else
me: what happened on your first day of work?
yori: the silver koi thing happened around 2 weeks into my job
me: tell me more about it...
yori: I found these strange files
Apparently they had been transported to the Enlightenment society a few days earlier
It was a great failure for the Takeda Company
So the head company Junker made them quit and only concentrate on robotics
for something called Onyo Project
Sent at 8:43 AM on Thursday
yori: what kind of robots does your company specialises in?
Sent at 8:45 AM on Thursday
me: sorry. had to do some work
we are working on hydrogen fuel cell storage for autos...some robots do some of the assembly. sounds a lot less impressive than your company
i've been reading a lot about enlightenment. have you read the tao te ching? or any of eckhart tolle's works?
yori: We developed something like that, but it involved uranium. It was for a big robot
me: wow! that's some heavy stuff! uranium! dangerous!
yori: Nope, i have no idea what they re
We do not produce the cells here
everything is produced in china

thanks!

what's the code, though? and what about the 32 at the end?

assumption:

this is going to say something about "aurora ____invitation?"

what do you all think?

we have to get more pieces. i just took my camera phone to the video game store and took my pic next to finding nemo. anything works. just try...they're not having enough interest.
