For those who are interested in sending John Hertz to the 2007 Worldcon in Japan, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mm_fijagh has set up an LJ to promote the fund at sjhtn2007. At this year's Worldcon, a sign advertised the fund under a new acronym, HANA, which stands for Hertz Across to Nippon Alliance, if I recall correctly. "Hana" is Japanese for "flower". Which reminds me that Takeshi Kitano's terrific crime drama Hana-bi (1997) is called Fireworks in English, and that the Japanese term literally means "fire flowers." I've always liked that.
