Very cool. It makes me a little happy to know that they can all look up the 
same stupid stuff I look up.

In Latin we like a phrase: In Loco Parentis    We use it in schools here and 
with young people all the time.  There is no moral reason why China cannot 
extend the concept to the net and social networking.

I look forward to your next info email

Searches for the terms "Revolution", "Democracy", and the phrase "Access
to Knowledge" in Google work just fine. However, all social media networks
are unavailable here, including facebook, youtube, twitter and the like.
The Chinese have their own version of YouTube: http://www.youku.com/

Here is a photo of me at the Shanghai Expo 2010: http://bit.ly/a2OIG5

Currently I am in Guangzhou and will be travelling to Hong Kong on
Thursday. I will see if there are any differences in Hong Kong with
respect to what is available on the www.
