> What's with all of this goodbye stuff? The internet and RinkWorks reach all over the world including China.

True, they do... sort of. Except for the Great Wall that's become the Great Firewall, and all the connotations thereof. Our school won't have web access for all the American teachers, so I'll be dependant on hiking it to the nearest cafe for email goodness.

Heck, the computer I'm sitting at right now says "No chat rooms or message boards" -- but I'm at a cafe in California, not China. I'll stick to rebelling on my home turf, where I can moan, groan, and roll my eyes at Big Bro's web monitoring, but at least not risk a lovely evening with the local law.

Anyhow -- my team's week of training finished up today. The curriculum we've been given is awesome, if not a bit intimidating. Our int'l flight leaves in a few hours. W00t.

Link: FYI,the bit on "Sudden Events" - includes natural disasters, etc.
