The latest meeting of the Ohio Honfyaku Get-together was held this past Saturday, July 12, 2003 in Columbus, Ohio from 12:00 - 3:00 PM.
Over lunch, topics of conversation ranged from translation rates for types of translation and fields of expertise to the benefits of UPS systems and backup generators after such a storm-ridden spring.

Specific examples were sited from her translation of two scholarly works written by J. Marshall (Jim) Unger - The Fifth Generation Fallacy (uRs [^[ΠοΖΏv) and Literacy and Script Reform in Occupation Japan (uθΜΊϊ{Μ\Lόvv).
