   Whew, that's a relief.  That is as I had been told from people who I   
   trusted to know what they were talking about.   
      
   I have encountered more than a few people here in the US who believe   
   women are supposed to wear kimonos reversed.  I think they get this idea   
   through the martial arts community.
