Safeguard is pretty industrial strength for me. Really helps as a
first line of defense, and summers in Japan, everyone needs all the
help they can get...

Japan: freezing in the winter, boiling in the summer. Where's the best
microclimate in Japan to live & work? I've been thinking the Sanyo
coast, maybe Hagi, or somewhere in Tokushima might have the California
climate that is most livable year-round.
