Reunion with Hal Tasaki in Garching
It was an incredible luck for me that he gave a short but comprehensive course on “Haldane gap” at Japanese Condensed Matter Physics Summer School in 1990, when I just started my graduate study. Much of my works including SPT and LSM originated from there!

Front spring of the bike is broken!!
This can happen after 17 years of strain.
(Actually I can still ride the bike with this broken spring, but I should replace it ASAP).
