That's great!  I know you have the 'in' to other sources of
information that others are not privy to - both with your connections,
and by virtue of living in Japan.  Sadly, here in Hong Kong, I am a
bit limited.  My main sources of sumo information are this mailing
list and the Sumo Forum  (Admittedly I have not really tried 'Sumo
Talk' yet).

Sadly, (especially with the exodus of many key contributors of the SML
in the past year or so), it is my opinion that the Sumo Forum is
*currently* the better source of information for sumo.

The format may not be to everyone's taste, but it probably is 'the
future', no matter how much you dislike it.  Apparently Betamax was
'better' than VHS - but they have both made way for something new.
