ML> KIX = Osaka Kansai International.

Ah, yes.  Been through there a few times.  The route to Jebel Ali via Singapore
I think it was.  No real memories of the place.

ML> NRT is not that unpleasant of an airport to hang around in -
ML> I've occasionally just wandered the corridors looking at all
ML> the overpriced stuff in the shops, even though I have access

Yeah, Haneda too though pretty sure we'll be flown out of Narita.

 ML> lounges at Y1260/person-hour, quite expensive. Also an
 CS> No actually for here, thats pretty good.  Thats 11$ an hour or 33$ for
 CS> all of  us.  If they serve free drinks though, I'd be suprised since
 CS> that fee is too  low for such.  I would expect a free internet WiFi
 CS> though. 

ML> I'd expect you could hang around outside and kipe free WiFi ...

That too!  No outlets though for USA style power.  My thinkpad doesnt have
switchable power.

 CS> I have iterchanged them but not all that often.  It's like using

ML> True enough, but I wouldn't say "badly" - just adjust the

ML> rather something like, heck, can't think at the moment,
ML> kale vs. spinach. 

I can think of a few dishes where it doesnt work well.  Nappa is too 'pale'
tasting for some things.  Kimchee for example doesnt taste right unless it has
some portion of bok choy added.  At least, thats how I like it.
