Though for the Day                          TM M.Suzuki

We would like to  sincerely extend our heartfelt condolences to people

who passed away by Iwate-Miyagi earthquake.    .



“Natural disaster happens to us when we forget it.”

This is a famous epigram made by Dr.Torahiko Terada,

a famous physicist and essayist..



As long as we are living in Japan, we cannot escape from earthquakes.



We must always prepare for natural disaster, especially earthquakes.
