Oops.  There was a serious error in the previous post.  I wrote,
"What's curious is that I've met Mr. Pan."  That is incorrect.
The correct statement is, "What's curious is that I've never met Mr. Pan."

This is a ludicrous comment, given that I've never identified my
ethnicity on this network and that I've never met Ms. Patsy Wang.

As for as being born Asian, I see nothing wrong with being born
as a particular ethnicity.  What I do see as being unacceptable is
large portions of Chinese-cu thought.  For example, I've identified
specifically that many Chinese-cu are incredibly racist in believing
that ethnicity determines culture.  Case in point is Mr. Wilbur Pan
(u58402@uicvm.uic.edu).

Who's this "us"?

The only culture that I have condemned is Chinese-cu culture.  I have
not made similar remarks about Korean-cu culture or Japanese-cu
culture.  There is a marked difference between the behavior exhibited
by Chinese-cu people and Japanese-cu people (and Korean-cu people).

I have received mail from all 3.  Although some of the mail from
the Koreans-cu were rather rude, no Japanese-cu and most of the
Koreans-cu have never done the following:

(1) flooded my mailbox
(2) sent mail threatening to commit physical violence against me
(3) sent mail saying that they've been probing me

#3 deserves some clarification.  Mr. Wilbur Pan (u58402@uicvm.uic.edu)
falls under this category.  He has sent me about 15+ pieces of mail.
His standard procedure is to append, unedited, USENET articles in their
entirety and to add some personal comments that attempt to allude to
something in my background.  He has been probing me.

What's curious is that I've never met Mr. Pan.  What's even more curious is
that even though I've _never_ answered any of his mail (this is my standard
response to mail from Chinese-cu people who commit #1, #2, or #3), he
continues to send mail.

Tell us, Ms. Wang, what your judgment of Mr. Pan's behavior is?
Are you really so Chinese-cu that you find his e-mail crusade to be
appropriate?

I submit that Mr. Pan's behavior is typical of Chinese-cu people.
We Americans may be somewhat surprised by this sort of activity,
but let's remember that we are talking about Chinese-cu behavior.
Can we really expect anything different?
