Keno is ID#1798 and not marked as retired.

As part of the sumogames data gathering, I have a program that crawls through 
the entire rikishi database on the NSK site gathering data and pictures 
including the Japanese shikona in kanji and hirigana, and thanks to 
Doitsuyama sharing the algorithm, the hirigana translated to romaji.  If 
anyone wants a download of the data to a spreadsheet, let me know and I will 
make it available on the sumogames site.
