David in Japan 922 Report post Posted January 23 Hi guys, how are you? Lately I saw, that new members from Japan joined us and I'd like to say that it is a rejoying news. Unfortunately, I also noticed that those members tend to disappear really quickly or to be shy (and or busy which is 100% understandable and logic if you work and live in Japan). As we are a very small community in Japan, I would like to make a kind of census to know who is still active, where do you live (your prefecture only is enough) and why not what you are collecting here in Japan. This kind of census would also be helpful to put in contact members from the same area to organize fossil hunt and exchange tips about fossil hunting in Japan. What do you think?

Good Luck I am not doing it for me. I just noticed i often get messages from members in japan concerning fossil spots and after helping them they just disapear. That is why i would like to see who is active or not.
