  1. i really like what you write especially those pieces written after midnight when they are half asleep and half sober.


  2. One of my profs. told me a story. A bunch of business people from the states went down to a small town in the South America. They announced that they were bringing civilization to these poor people who did not have proper teeth. They taught the local people how to brush their teeth…how to use toothpaste. Then, they set up a tooth paste company in the town and making cheap tooth paste and brushes. You might start to add tooth brushes with “I Love PRC” in your cyber shop.


  3. Can you mention the name or contact information for the dentist? I’m in Shanghai, and still looking for a “middle-class” dentist. Thanks.

  6. Growing up in China in the city, I remembered brushing my teeth everyday, but still I got bad teeth. I frequented the dentist’s much more often than others because one of my teeth was knocked out after being tripped by one of my classmates. My father told me that my teeth were perfect before that incident. I wish I could take my revenge on that SOB who tripped me 30 some years ago. Dammit!

    Yeah, I never heard of flossing in my life in China. But now in America, I can’t go without flossing after each meal.

    China has a long way to go to reach the level of the US.
