    Do you cover with a blanket? You gotta do that. I point the fan directly toward my face in the summer heat (which seems to be just getting started now in Shizuoka).

    Also, like another poster mentioned earlier, the sound of the fan is very relaxing.

    Wonders where you can find Ginseng root in Okinawa....haha~
    朝鮮人参, ちょうせんにんじん,Chousen Ninjin, or Asian ginseng, can be found here in Okinawa at any number of herbal pharmacies, however, real or otherwise, it can cost quite a bit.
