new pics up on benross.net
After a really lax 2006, I have decided to make it my New Years resolution to do a better job of keeping benross.net updated. The first thing is to upload all the pics from 2006 which include my trip to Hunan & Jiangxi, my trip back to the US, my work in Beijing, Guangzhou, and Shanghai, and my trip to Mongolia. I will be putting a lot of new galleries up in the next few weeks, so stop by benross.net to check them out. The first gallery I put up is from a trip I took with Ron over the May Day holiday where we went to neighboring Jiangxi and Hunan province. We visited 6 different cities in 6 days, and accomplished all this by doing most of our traveling at night as we slept on buses or trains. Our final destination was Shaoshan, the home of Mao Zedong. You can view the pics at www.benross.net/photos.htm More to come, enjoy.

Ben,我很喜欢Mark Knopfler的歌,他的专辑The Ragpicker’s Dream,Trawlerman’s Song,Sailing To Philadelphia,Shangri-La等都很不错,知道你是很喜欢音乐的,什么时候有空介绍一下Mark,或者推荐一下类似风格的音乐,谢谢。

你的照片很精彩,除了游山玩水,你是否经常有听中国的音乐,流行音乐,民族音乐,歌颂党和国家的音乐等等,不知你对它们有什么感受,有空介绍一下。

Ben,I’m Aileen’s brother.About the”Paper and plastic”,what I can tell you is that it’s the same as what’s happening in NYC.Obviously,the shop attendants want to judge whether you’ve paid by wrapping items in bags.So,when you are leaving the gate,the guard can check you with his eyes for just one second.It’s wasteful,but it’s simple.It’s business,people don’t care about entironment,they care about the COST.I also can tell you that in Los Angle, customers disagree with the low of restricted plastic bags using at super market.I know it form the newspaper at May2007.
