In somewhat similar vein, I am in Australia at the moment - learning 
to walk again after a hip replacement operation, which is not a lot 
of fun - but a friend in Japan tells me there is a TV commercial for 
soap powder being shown currently featuring none other than our 
favourite Yokozuna!!??  Allegedly no doubt that it really is Asa, and 
very recent too.

Can this be?  Had anyone else seen it?  I have always believed the 
Kyokai would never permit such a thing.

Grateful for enlightenment.
