If anyone happens to be transiting through HK, please let me know.  Won’t make the reunion this year, so best to all!  Oh, and if you think you are too old to learn anything new, you can!  Somehow this linguistically lame fellow managed to learn enough Chinese in 2009 to get around, function as a Beijing resident and rap a bit with the locals.”
