Bruce, I was watching a special on modern China the other day and a China specialist was pontificating on several points. His name was Bill Moomaw.

Now, you're the first person I ever ran across with that last name, so I figure it can't be all *that* common. Is this fellow some relation of yours?

My last name is not pronounced very politely in English. In fact, I'm not sure it will get past the censoring smile.gif
