From Tokyo

...where I'm attending the fifteenth Japanese Workshop on General Relativity and Gravitation.

At some point, I'll blog about:

• All the interesting work being done by the mostly young, mostly Japanese physicists here;
• The distressing things The Royal Society is saying about open access to scientific information (which has already been covered all over the blogosphere); and
• The harsh things the Royal Society's outgoing head, Lord Robert May, is saying about science in the UK and the US (I hope the new head, astrophysicist Sir Martin Rees, will be equally strident).
