Yi Xu,
     That was kind of you to post the list of Japanese contacts and organizations.

> D-Mec Ltd.
> Fumio Kurihara (General Manager Technical Division)
> JSR Bldg.
     Kurihara-san is no longer with D-MEC.  He now manages JSR's Plastics Laboratory
in Yokkaichi, near Osaka.

> JAPANESE STEREOLITHOGRAPHY INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION
     I was told by several sources in Japan that the name of this association is the
Japan Association of Rapid prototyping Industry (JARI).  That's also what is
printed on the business cards of JARI's directors and chairman.  

     Here's contact information for Kira:
Kenji Otake
President
Kira Corporation
Tomiyoshi Shinden
Kira Cho Hazu-gun
Aichi Pref., Japan
phone: 0563-32-1161
fax: 0563-32-3241

     Yi - Please tell Professor Nakagawa hello for me.  Thanks!

P.S. The news from Japan is very sad.  I visited Kobe and Osaka in November. 
My thoughts and condolences go out to the people effected by this terrible
earthquake.
