I just wanted to say just what a pain in the ass it is to deal with Japanese 50 and 60Hz power when you have 6 or more service entries to a building, each of which feature a different voltage, phase and frequency combination. Whole different design philosophy over there. Makes adding a generator fun.

Edit: you know... I wonder what power their toilet seats take? I didn't think to look. GFCI, I hope. Damn, wouldn't THAT be a terrible way to go...
