Thank you for the update. I trust your information but am curious about how you know things that aren’t widely published. Do you have relatives in China and Taiwan who keep you up to date?
The biggest thing is that I have been a compulsive reader on a very wide range of subjects for almost sixty years. I don't have that great a memory but I have a fantastic mental indexing system. If I can't remember something I can generally remember where to go to find out.
