By the looks of things, I'm not the only one who's been a little busy this winter.

Shimmying through the door at Vision Quest's cramped Roppongi office, I am met with clutter stacked almost to the low, paneled ceiling.

"Doc? Bashful?" I call out over the stack of boxes, parcels and furniture standing on end, inexplicably fearful for the famous Seven Dwarfs stools, which the Vision Quest planners use to brainstorm at crunch time.
