Oooh, pretty Japanese characters. :)

And I can actually read them in my Firefox browser, which makes them even cooler. ;)

You know, one of my friends in my physics class suggested we use kanji as symbols in math equations so as to lessen the confusion (such as velocity, v, and volume, V). That would be a great idea, I think. I mean, who wouldn't want an equation like:

Pressure is equal to alpha times omega over hentai?

Heh...

Ha ha ha! I love the equation, that's fantastic! It certainly would make things much more interesting, but honestly now, could you concentrate on physics with stuff like that in your text books? Ehh? ;-)

ah! is katakana really that hard? i learned hiragana in a few days, no prob... but now you're scaring me with all this katakana hocus-pocus...

Well, I suppose it depends on the person...katakana is hard for me to memorize, but other than that, it's not difficult. Hiragana is easy, and though Kanji are complicated, I like them and find them fun...but Katakana...Ugh...
