Updated my Name: field.

[randomness]

I've updated my name here from a lame pinyin romanization using digits to indicate tones to one that uses traditional Chinese characters. And just in time for the Lunar New Year, too. Wheee.

Aside from the self-puffery, I figured I'd ask if it causes problems for your browser. It works fine on this system, but if it regularly trashes other people's views of my pages, tell me and I'll see what can be done about it.

As a side note, I discovered that there's someone in Xi'an with the same name as me. They're the contact on some environmental engineering page for a shopping mall that's under construction.

Which days will you be around? I'm planning to be down in DC the week immediately before, so timing will be iffy, but it would be great to see you. You just missed saramin; she was in Manhattan this last weekend for an interview.

Whoops, I meant sarabellum.

Anyway, your name came up; she wondered if you were still in Astoria and I brought her up to date.

Speaking of dim sum, have you been East Buffet, 4201 Main St., Flushing, NY 11355, (718) 353-6333.

Mom says that one side of the building is a very good buffet and the other side is dim sum. Haven't been there yet myself.

Er, make that "have you been to"...

I probably have been there. My MO for restaurants in NYC is um... which direction should I walk till something looks appetising to either myself or who i'm with. So I'm horrible with names. Is it the place on the 2nd floor with a really really big staircase?

I keep finding myself in the Flushing mall doing that whole hot pot thing. Where you buy eggs and meat and stuff and cook the food at your table in a soup. Well you don't cook the egg, you make a dipping sauce with that sesame oil, and soil sauces.
