Dear Bro Shanghaitan,

The thread will be shades of black and white without postings of your well-balanced views. The command of English demonstrated through your postings is commendable, from which I learn a great deal.

This is a place for people to write about their encounters (the accuracy and truthfulness will be immediately apparent from experienced people in the forum), views (good and balanced ones like those from you), and some criticism (to me, a contributing one is always welcome).

To make the thread colourful, FR's, views, suggestions, recommendations, candid comments are all necessary. My enthusiasm will be largely reduced by your absence in the thread. Do you know that after I have written a posting, I look forward always to your comments, believe me, in the name of _______.

Hope not to see your complete absence from the Thread

I shall be in Shanghai soon, and will call you out for Tea.
