Abe-san or anyone else, is there any religious or historical reason why
the dohyo has to be elevated?  I have seen several rikishi injure
themselves in falling off the dohyo, ie Wakanohana, Mitoi, Tomonohana, and
it would seem that if the dohyo was level with the floor, that we would
have fewer injuries and more exciting sumo.
regards, seelye martin
