Agree with Sirian here. By it's size and it's orientation, it's starting to look like... well... look like Japan!
Crap! So sorry about the missing save. 
But now I see I'm having some problems with the upload. Let's see if this works:
save
Edit: Not working. Trying to figure this out ASAP.
Edit2: Should work now. Problem with valid extensions, so I just zipped it.
PS - I'm really sorry. I feel like a true bonehead. I shouldn't be too surprised though, as I'm the guy who sends out emails missing the attachments that were the only reason to send the email in the first place.
You need a monastary to create missionaries that spread the religion of that specific monastary (you can build a monastary [and temple and cathedral] for each religion present in a city). But it will also spread on its own via the trade network and hastened by other factors, including the presence of the appropriate shrine in the holy city, which can be built by a Great Prophet. Need Meditation (which we have, it's the Buddhism tech) to build monastaries and they give a slight (+10%) boost to beakers in the city in which they are built.
Formula51 is right that the Organized Religion civic allows any city with the state religion to build a missionary. It also gives a 25% boost to produciton in each city with the state religion. Requires Monotheism (which is also the Judaism tech).
I'm starting to sound like the manual.

Preflight check: move the settler out to the resources. Move the worker back towards the copper so we can get that hooked up.
Go for Sailing as suggested.
Switch settler to rax (well need it sooner or later and we have tons of food so those hills can me mined and worked)
T1: 2160BC move settler
T2: 2120BC ditto. Pantera is coming back to garrison the new town
T3: 20805BC worker finishes roading hill, moves to the next one
T4: 2040BC worker roads 2nd hill. Found Osaka -> scout
T5: 2000BC Pantera (warrior) moves into Osaka
IBT: Bede states that we are mm7 the puny
T6: 1960BC Woody the warrior finds the brown borders (due N of us)
T7: 1920BC
IBT: Sailing -> Animal Husband
T8: 1880BC Interesting, the game tells me that Osaka and Kyoto are now connected. Must be via the coastal waters
Yikes: MM to get a rax in 1T instead of 2
T9: 1840BC rax -> galley
T10: 1800BC Workers have finished mining the copper, now i set the worker to road it to connect it to the cities.
We can probably go for a worker in Osaka soon to connect the dyes and give us a little more happiness as we have 1 useless citizen in Kyoto right now

Sailing enables coastal trade. That's why your two cities became connected as soon as you finished research on Sailing. Oh, and isn't drawing on the map fun? 
Can't activate dyes until we can build plantations (ditto for bananas). I'd say address the happiness problem in Kyoto by switching to Buddhism as our State Religion. After that, we might think about a temple (which would require Priesthood). Also, you can tell the city gov to set "No Growth" in a city which organizes tiles worked to maximize output while (you guessed it) breaking even on food. Might make sense as long as we are unhappy or at the threshold of being unhappy.
Edit: Ivory, on the other hand, is a lux that we can access with Hunting (which if we don't already have we can get pretty cheap). I'd say the next city needs to capture the horses and elephants.
@grahamiam and/or Sulla: How does one draw on the map?
@Sulla: Is it fun to watch the rest of us stumble around in the dark with all of your hard-earned wisdom (or at least experience)?

we can build a quick Oblisk in Osaka to expand it's borders for the ivory. perhaps do that before building a worker there? sorry about not revolting, I knew I was forgetting something
@eotinb: to draw on the map, zoom out (perhaps all the way or close to it) till the leftmost button over the minimap appears (the one with 4 orange blocks). click on it to draw or write. The only thing that's not quite right with it is that the fog makes it dark or unreadable, so I had to move the text S 1T so we could see the text.

Build stonehinge. I am addicted to that wonder. oblisk in every city.

Well, I think we should avoid Civ3 style wonder addiction, but damn, I also love stonehenge.
I should be getting my game by next week at the latest.
IIRC, you can name continents/islands also.
Gram, I think a worker is a better idea, as it will allow us to get some more hammers to build the obelisk faster. Plus, we really don't need the ivory inside our borders until we can hook it up to a city.

[lurk-semiOT post] - In SMAC I regularly used the ability to name tiles (landmarks) to remind myself where I wanted to place cities. I would think that you could create ingame dotmaps for succession games in the same way, and they'll be impossible for the next player to miss.
Given the happiness situation in Osaka, the faster we hook up luxes, the better. If our only concern is hooking up the ivory (and I'm not suggesting that it should be), it actually makes more sense to build the obelisk before the worker since it takes some time for an obelisk to grow a city's borders. Of course, building Stonehenge changes that calculation.Formula51 said:

OK we should get the lux up. We might want to push out past the choke but I would have to look at the map more closely. We are secure for getting the near by cities but they should be place carefully and on fresh water if at all possible. It is as good as an aquaduct.
Formula51 if you have the game working is up. If not let us know or I'll take it in 24 hrs.

Mark, do you know you're up?
1160: Switch Kyoto to worker we need some. Send settler to FP spot. Bring galley home for transport duty. Looks like some nice stuff around us. I see another rice, sugar and gems on nearby lands.
1080: Osaka Scout->Archer, Scout back to Osaka for Island exploration duty.
1000: Kyoto worker->worker build cottage on river. We need the $$$.
975: Priesthood in -> Monarchy
950:-775: Not much. Start exploring the other lands with scout. Start hooking up ivory and building cottages. I would try to expand out to the surrounding Islands as they look like they may have nice stuff. Dont forget military
