    especially when the files have been ordered to be destroyed. However‚ some of these files always manage to survive‚ often “sent to the wrong place.” Files such as those from the highly confidential Project MKUltra as well as its offshoot‚ Operation Midnight Climax.

    Eleventh Street was the longest‚ narrowest‚ and oldest street in the town. It had lots of potholes and rifts. Eleventh Street was a busy street where I spent most of my time. Both sides of the street were lined with stores and restaurants. There were many people walking on the street. There were a lot fun things to do‚ all within walking distance‚ and no matter what time the year‚ the stores were opened to the public‚ except on major holidays. Eleventh Street embodied to most of my childhood.

    Kyoto at midnight is an astonishing sight‚ like Paris. The streets are filled with people on their way to and from cultural events. Some are wearing kimono‚ others are in Armani or Yamamoto.

Indeed it was the capital for a thousand years before a cluster of small villages on Tokyo Bay became a city. Kyoto is changing rapidly‚ however. Diane Durston is the author of Old Kyoto and Kyoto: Seven
