@Gompo: Why?
The whole world could be more ecologically oriented, but the economic system in place does not adequately promote that - nor does the political system, which reflects the economic system.
But what ecological damage occurs as a result of things like bandwidth, etc.? I don't know much of anything about the effects of the internet on ecology.
No yahoo contact for 2-3 days now.
I think it's because much of the world is not too interested in Africans who die of malaria, and because malaria does not spread from human contact.
No results found.
Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.
As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.
Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.
Too bourgeois.
Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
Ain't no flies on Salvador's.

发布者@bluppfisk: I agree, though that doesn't necessarily mean that it's a good idea. I take back my comment that those who do so are idiotic - 7 hours on an airplane is a long time.

发布者@Peter: What 'they'? What 'strike'? What does any of this have to do with nationality? It's only about bad flight delays and idiot impatient passengers, Peter.
