Subject: NHK Redux ...
Posted by: Dave Bull

I said in yesterday's post that Saturday would be a 'rest' day for the project, because of the appointment with Tetsui-san. That was the plan, and that was what happened.

But the 'rest' day has been extended - I won't be able to get back to the workbench on Sunday as scheduled. Friday afternoon I got an email from the producer at NHK who had been responsible for the 30-minute 'Japanophiles' program on my work last autumn (viewable here, for those of you who missed it).

Turns out they are trying to get back to 'normal' schedules as the news cycle calms down after the disaster, but haven't got regular programming back in sync yet. He let me know that they had decided to re-broadcast my program as a kind of 'filler', running it six times on Saturday, in between the news bulletins.

That seemed like good news, so I wrote back a quick thank you note, then got on with my work. Come Saturday morning, as Tetsui-san and I were just settling in for the sizing practice (pics here), my computer gave out the special little 'fanfare' sound indicating that an order had come in. And then a few minutes later, again ... and then again ... The first of the six re-broadcasts had finished a few minutes before, and people had begun to make their way to the website ...

It is now Sunday morning, all six showings have run their course, and the subscriber base is now increased by . . .
