He Xiong, (and everyone),

I agree with you on most things you wrote, although
you don't have to be ashamed.  If anything, I would
like to apologize, as the one before you, for speaking
too long.  I was totally pumped up by the event and
forgot to maintain some self-discipline.  Usually I
don't speak much in group events and I am rather quiet
at work (hard to believe, huh:>).  The reunion has the
magic power to change everything.  Actually, at the
end of Sunday, a few of us were discussing about the
reunion and noticed you didn't talk much.  We all
remembered you were more active back in school and
thought maybe you were too tired (work, kid, flight,
..), although I was already thinking, maybe I talked
too much :<.  Anyway, I cordially hope you can speak
more about yourself, your work and your family (your
daughter is very lovely!).  It is not as good as we
can hear them in person, but I bet everyone would like
to read them and appreciate them.  Actually, I'd like
to see everyone to do the same.  If you feel you have
anything to share but missed them in the reunion,
please word them out.  This is even more true for
people who were not present in the reunion.  So I
would ask everyone who didn't participate in this
reunion (Bi Qi, Chen YaLei/Zhang YiPing, Liu ChunHong,
and everyone in China) to write us a summary, be it
brief or lengthy, for the time since graduation and
his/her current situations.  This way our emotional
ties to 847 can only grow stronger.  In the mean time,
don't hesitate to write here when you feel the urge. 
Anything is welcome.  This is your family.  This is
the place.  This place belong to you!  


Thanks,
Fan

By the way, brothers and sisters, please do me a
favor.  I'd rather receive email at my public account
at ccfxx@yahoo.com because our company has strong
policy against email for personal use and also because
I may change my job indefinitely.  Therefore, please
send your email to ccfxx@yahoo.com.  That account
should exist as long as yahoo! allows and I do check
it regularly.  Zhang Yong, can you check to see if
your email-to-all web link use my public account?
