   Hi Lurkers and Posters.   
   	I got lucky at the San Francisco Public Library and found volumes 8 & 9   
   of Ooku (already owning volumes 1-7) and was able to   
   catch up this weekend.   
   	It starts to get good in volume 8 and begins to turn on   
   Dutch Medicine versus the traditional doctors and relegated heirs   
   to the Shogun begin to intrigue against the Shogun, her primary   
   councilor and a woman scholar as well as the half-Dutch commoner   
   scholar who has been brought into the Ooku to help teach Dutch   
   medicine to the male inmates.   
   	The objective of the study is to find a way to deal with   
   the deadly Red Face Plague and it is exciting to read.   
      
   	I hope you will read Ooku.
