I met 100 Japanese bloggers tonight at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo to debate how the internet can fuel the drive to meet the challenge of climate change.  The event will be at www.uknow.or.jp .  The predominantly young audience did not give the panel a tough time - you can see the Japanese chief government advisor at www.kiyoshikurokawa.com but did show a zeal and studiousness that was impressive. 
 
I hope they found time to visit the roving highlights of the Turner modern art exhibition three floors up - including Damien Hirst's incredible halved cow.  300 000 visitors in three months are getting a taste of not-so-traditional Britain.
