Today I learned: if you translate the Japanese word for ambergris one kanji at a time, it&#39;s &quot;dragon drool smell&quot;.

Yes, I&#39;m afraid it&#39;s true. Dave Farber passed away suddenly on Saturday. We are working to handle all of the arrangements here. The &quot;tsuya&quot; (wake -- more formal than an Irish wake, but less formal than a funeral) will be Thursday evening 1800-2030, then the funeral will be 1100 on Friday, both at Himonya Kaikan in Meguro, if you are in/around Tokyo. And if not, there is time to jump on a plane and get here. https://www.ccrc.keio.ac.jp/obituary-notice_david-farb...

JR East is raising its fares. For the first time since privatization. In 1987.
