  - either way, try to get in a good meal or 2. -- nm - peglegpete Oct 10, 22:23
  - I get the feeling that some of the bastardized US chinese food got backported to China, but I'm not sure :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 10, 22:23
and all 16 offers came with happy endings, right? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 10, 22:10
