Nice one!

In any case, I can't see all the foreigners gathering together and 
acting as one. Apart from the sumo connection, the different 
nationalities have different points of view. The only common connection 
is that sumo gives them their chance to be famous and make a lot more 
money than they could at home. If they tried to band together and set 
themselves against the Kyokai, as Mr. Plintz so amusingly suggests, it 
is very hard to see what they would hope to achieve -- and, for 
starters, who would be their spokesman???
