Assistance Needed: Japanese Language

Greetings:
There is a project we are working on for FlyerTalk that requires a little research in Japanese. I am quite humble in saying that I cannot read nor speak this language and hope that there is a member of FlyerTalk that can assist me with a few inquires on behalf of FlyerTalk.

I would be most thankful for any assistance.

My mother speaks and writes Japanese fluently. Not sure what type of committment you're looking for, but for a one-(or few-) shot deal I can see what I can do.

Randy,

Repost (or at the very least cross post) this in the Japan forum and I am sure at least 80-90% of us will be happy to kick in with time and effort. I for one agree to assiust to the best of my abilities here and now. I live in Tokyo and can be a point of contact here.

Would offer similar assistance. My Japanese is good and would be grateful to help you out (quid pro quo for having set up this great site!).

Sir, if you are in need of contacts within JL or NH I think a few on these boards can help you out! And if you are planning a trip here more than a few of us will certainly be able to help arrange something special!

Randy, while not knowing exactly what skills and abilities, and levels thereof, will be necessary, I would like to offer whatever modest abilities I may have.

I also wonder if this project/help is something that perhaps can be put to the Japan Forum as a group? The spectrum of experience and knowledge there ala Japan is truly impressive (so much so that it's also a little scary).

Will offer any assitance that is applicable to the task, but so far I can't tell what is needed.

Please advise,

Scho
