Me and a friend have been to the one in Edgewater, NJ a few times. 
A few miles south of the George Washington Bridge.  On
Route 5, if I remember correctly.  Located across the street from
some sort of heavy industry factory, and near some warehouses, and 
another shopping center a bit to the north.
Yaohan has a supermarket, book store, place where you can get Japanese
CDs for about $30, a Japanese resturant next to the Hudson river, and
some smaller cafes and places where you can get sushi and such in the
supermarket.  And a toy store that sells what looks to be the same stuff
in American toy stores, except the boxes have Japanese language printed
on them instead of English.  They used to have an appliance shop, that
sold TVs, stereos, household stuff like vacuums, irons and such.  And
some (odd to an American) stuff like electronic toilet seats!
Guess this shop folded when people found that the TVs and such could
be had for less money at Crazy Eddie's and "the Wiz" stores.

This place has been there for some years, and is starting to look
a little beat.  Nothing a little paint and such won't fix.  And
the parking lot is always overcrowded on Saturdays.

I am trying to find out how I can get my friend an email account.  She
lives in Hong Kong and works for a public relations firm.  Since she is no
longer a student, how can she go about getting an email account?  I
suspect that she could probably suscribe to some communication services. 
How expensive are they?  Does she need a computer to call in (versus going
to a location to dial in).  I don't know if she has modem access from her
office.

If anyone has any information, I would appreciate a response directly to me
at chen@bcm.tmc.edu.  Both of us are rather ignorant about computers, so if
it is possible, lay person instructions, PLEASE.  Thanks in
advance for your help.

     First of all, I appreciate your effort, and I support the letter
fully -- simply because Chris Patten's reform package is of advantage
to us (Hong Kong People) if the Chinese government does not intervene
by rejecting the idea without putting just a little bit of effort to
think about it WITH RESPECT TO HONG KONG PEOPLE's future prosperity.
Even though it may not be perfect to someone, but the FUNDAMENTAL
IDEA and its purpose is good to Hong Kong.  If the Chinese would just
let us decide our own future, the stock market wouldn't have a plunge
as low as 5400; people's mind wouldn't have been bothered and confused
by the Chinese Gov't's attacks.  Concerning the linkage before and
after 1997, I don't think the Chinese should use it as a tool of
criticism and rejection because Hong Kong people are not stupid.  We
won't do anything that don't allow us to be compatible with mainland.
Just let our Legislative Councillors decide.  Even though it is a
made-in-Britain proposal, we have the power in LEGCO to amend or
reject it so as to pave a smooth future for ourselves by ourselves!!!
But it has be unfortunate that those people who wants to make money
has been changing their minds and chose to reject Patten's proposal.
I think these people are losing their ethics and their future.  They
made a 180 degrees' turn and supported the Chinese Gov't to vandalize
the British proposal!!!  Dare!

    Actually, my concern about this article is:
    Does Mr. Dick Chan has any guarantee for those who are willing to
donate?  Pay to the order of _____________?  How are you going to do
this?  I don't mean we don't trust you, but any guarantee??
    How do you define "people with financial problem" can donate
however much they want???

I honestly think all those postings posted by pop. singers are fake.  
The author of the postings merely change their logname and poster_adr 
before posting.

You, too, may do so by editing .nn/.param (if you are using nn).  I hardly
use rn, so I can tell you.

So, please don't get fooled by those fake postings.  Also, please
don't abuse .param and the net.  

(To those silent experts out there, I apologize for "showing off."  My
 knowledge is trivial compare to yours.   I just cant stand reading
 any more "are you really so-and-so" postings anymore... so I have to
 say something.  I hope you will pardon me. :)

Yes, the students have to study Chinese History until Form 3, and it includes
Modern Chinese History.  The unfortunate fact is that very little is said
about Mainland and Taiwan after 1949.  For example, my Chinese History
text book
has only 1 chapter devoted to post 1949 on both sides of the strait.  I
think
the original writer was referring to this kind of situation.
