Haruo or anyone else.
Reading this thread reminds me of a student at Emory who was from Burma. He was a regular at all BSU activities. He was/is a part of a minority tribe in the jungles of Burma. He came to America to prepare himself for the task of translating the Bible into his native tongue. His name, spelled phonetically, was Forth Nai-song. Do you think your new friends might know him.
