LOL. No.although that would certainly fit the mold. Its summer
vacation, and I'm back in Maine for the break. I fly back to HK on
August 7, and SWMBO and I think we'll probably stay there for a 6-year
term, as it feels sorta nice to be somewhere that we aren't likely to
be caught up in a coup or something.

OTOH, SWMBO is in Israel at this moment, so we're not THAT far from the
heat.

blame the situation on you exorbitant salary! {:~^)
