Sorry to hear about the Chinese block. When I was there last year we could access everything. I guess times change. But it’s odd that I have some Chinese Facebook friends who occasionally manage to post items. I guess the censors are fickle.

Upon this comment we just tried again using four computers in our place, all with very good systems and software, and none could open Face Book. So we made three calls, and three-out-of-three found the same.

I wonder if your Chinese friends are using what my own son suggested, which is logging on to one of several American-based sites through which other sites can be accessed without it indicating to the system over hear what is being accessed. I don’t know the correct words for all of that, sorry.
