Forgot to say that I should certainly not be regarded as any sort of gawd, but my unfortunate guess would be that some of them are no longer with us. Most of them have probably wandered elsewhere on the Web.

Most interesting Japanese language topic of the day would probably be Izumi Kyoka. Reading a new translation, but I also got an annotated version of the Japanese. Turns out my wife studied him in her salad days, but he's a serious challenge to the translator. "...my finances have gone south" turned out to come from an obscure Japanese idiom about a northern mountain.
