Sigh, Sir Ron, actually I'm not happy in this special holiday, because I find now I can't logon all of overseas forbidden websites where often publish a great many negtive news in regard to Communists' events.
Before that I usually used a special communicating tool or a foreign proxy server to visit those websites and I'd known many things that most of common Chinese can never know.
Unfortunately, all of them can't work out now.
And I learnt that China government have begun strengthening the extent of news bloackade.
Here I'll show you some information about that.
In China you even can't type "democracy" or "freedom" in many famous chatrooms or searching engine, let alone discussing political topics.
Also, the Internet policemen would try their best to monitor any conncetion out from China and spy who you'll communiate with or what you will watch.
Much evilest, they would pretend and make up some proxy servers for the people like me who wanna view overseas news, so that they can be easier to control local Chinese as well as arrest these "illegal" viewers.

What an ugly and foul country China is. I hope heartfully that I'm able to escape from here soon.
Or I may be arrested by them too.


Btw, now I know it's called "peg" to describe the relation between Renminbe and Dollar.( xixi. Sir, your pronounciation is amazingly correct. this is its chinese character"人民币“. very ironically, it means "people's money")

We call that "Spring Festival" because it's the first day of a new "Lunar Year" in Eastern Asia. which is always later than the Gregorian Calendar.
As fas as "Spring", I'm not sure about it, but I guess it's because this holiday may be in February of some years, so that's very closed to the March, Spring.
So it means after this holiday the Spring will come to the world soon.
Tomorrow is the last day of Lunar Year 2003 and all of Chinese will celebrate and wait for the new year.
Wish your American guys as well as all of people here happy and joyful in the next year.
