Adventures come at surprising times -- more so when you're in contact with local folks day to day. This, and the exercise of walking between transit stops keep me using the public system -- its also less inexpensive. Today on the bus a Chinese man passionately conversing in that tongue looked over and asked "Are you American or British?" When I answered he diatribed on the virtues of Obama for president and asked me to encourage my British friends to write their Labor Party to limit the erosion of representatives from Parliament (before its too late)! About half-way into this dialog many were laughing around us. I agreed to pass the information along -- so to my British friends: please see his note -- this is your big chance. And.... I must confess how much I enjoyed talking with him.
