2016.11.14

It was cloudy in the daytime and became rainy in the evening.

I was looking forward to seeing the Supermoon which happens after 68 years, but it may be impossible tonight.

At work I had a chance to listen to the lecture by the person from Bridgestone which is one of the biggest tire companies in the world. I knew the name Bridgestone is from the founder's name Ishibashi (石橋) which literally means stone bridge. But I did not know that the company was from Kurume, Kyushu and started from the socks company. They say their common language has been English since 2013, and if there is someone who is not Japanese they must use English to communicate.
