I've seen sake and beer vending machines in the Japanese countryside of Shikoku. So I'm looking forward to the crazy selection of vending machines in Tokyo. Love the 1950's retro-future Automat vibe Japan seems to have. Like a pseudo-Jetsons. Of course I'm sure their technical Universities are working on the real thing, e.g. nanotech / molecular manufacturing. :-) As are we in the U.S.
