Nice piece, but I must take exception with the first item. The rest of it I would say is fairly well-known to real sushi lovers (not just sushi junkies, but the real snobs that take the whole thing seriously).
The white person that I consider the most well-versed in Jp. culture insists that the best place in the world to eat sushi is on the Tokyo docks, where the fish is served right off the boats. He says it's a popular destination, so I wonder if it's just a matter of taste (as in tastebuds), or if it really is superior when eaten at its most fresh.
