Name: Paul Knowles

E-mail address: paul.knowles@bigfoot.com

Message: If I ever graduated from YIS, I would have done so in 1990.
I am now living just outside London and I'm working as a
statistcal programmer for GlaxoSmithKline. I worked in the
music industry for a couple of years before opting for an
easier longterm career in pharmaceuticals. My hobbies are
still pretty much the same as they were when I was a kid
growing up in Japan: beer and sport. I'm desperately trying
to get hold of a very old friend of mine from this class:
Yuichiro Kato. Has anyone heard from him in the last 10
years. If so, give me a shout. I'm still in touch with Gert-
Jan Pauli, who now lives in Madrid. Kayoko and Riki have
also been in touch. My memories of growing up in Yokohama
are fond ones and, if you ever get close to London, I'd
love to meet up with old friends over a beer. Take care
Class 90. All the best. Paul.

Message: To the gang -
I second Eugene's comments. What is up with our reunion??
I saw some kind of set up happening in Hawaii around
November, but I wasn't sure if it was for previous years'
or what. Does YIS have some kind of "general, all year
reunion" or something?
If not, let's all get together somewhere else. How does
New York sound? Why don't we do a NY-Bermuda type
arrangement?? A little bit of city, a little bit of
island...
MESSAGE TO ROMINA! I've tried to email you at the Hotmail
address but it was bounced back.
Please email me at FERMATA99@email.com
I am currently retired... at least for now... until I feel
like working again. So I can come visit you wherever,
whenever. Where are you? London? Lusanne?

E-mail address: eugenhs@hotmail.com

Message: Wow, this place hasn't been visited in a long time. We are
like a month away from our 10 year and I haven't
heard "nutt'in". Rumi - I thought that you were trying to
hook up everybody to organize. Need help? I have lots of
email addresses (not sure if they are current...)

So dudes/dudettes, my wife is hapai and we are expecting a
little one in January, 2001 (look up meaning in Hawaiian
dictionary if you don't get it). Scary... Not sure if I
am ready for the responsibility but guess I don't have a
choice in the matter! Now I gotta figure out a way to move
back to Japan again (for the umpteenth time) so that our kid
(s) can go to YIS and experience the same "love" that we
did - tehehehe.

Hope to see ya all soon. Yoroshiku.

Message: Marie
It's Romina. What happened to you? I guess we sort of lost
touch after few communications. I'll send you mail to your
address (hoping it is yours). If you don't get it send me
mail directly here or rominahoech@hotmail.com since I'm
leaving NYC, where I moved from Chicago to Zurich of all
places next week with my Swiss fiancee and then we are
moving to London in fall. Give more details later. Reply

Message: Wow... Does anybody even remember me? Chubby one, quiet,
round faced girl... one of the original that clawed my way
up kinder, elementary and middle school, only to jet after
9th grade?
I recognize names like Leya and Margaret, Eugene and
Riki... I thought used to be Umba Mihara. God, I'm so out
out of the loop, so to speak. What's up with Kazu,
Takeshi, George, Yuka, Lisa, Rummy... the gang??
I'm on vacay right now... finally had a moment to cruise
the web for a change. Ironic, since I've been up to my
ears in the web industry for the last few years. (Who
hasn't?)
How about a Millenial gathering in the summer of 2000?
Paris, anybody?

Just wanted you all to know that I'll be back in Japan for a
