I have to guess - ok, that's what I'm always having to do.
I don't think being clear is a vice.
Another question: Where is the site search button?
@ tiger: it would, tiger, but we are talking about profit-making here as the motive force for speaking, not about what is ciivilized (whatever that might mean), honest or true.
@tiger: OK, you may be right, but there are 2 thumbs-down on my last post - what is this supposed to mean, to me or to anybody else - that I shouldn't be asking gokunming this question?
gokunming, what are the thumbs up/thumbs down supposed to be for - total agreement/total disagreement with the speaker? It would seem to me that a mere statement of disagreement, by thumbs-down, doesn't contribute much to any discussion and that the person who disagrees should make a minimal effort to explain why, otherwise he/she isn't really contributing much to the discussion.
Alternatively, a thumbs down might just mean 'You're off the topic'.
Easy to find an apartment.

I'm not a health foody but the few meals I've had here have been really good and, yeah, I'll be happy to go back alone to sample all the rest of them. It's also not a bad place from which to people-watch the street below.
CNAC: The godfather of aviation in Yunnan
Posted byOK. but I think.I'd use 'they', for accuracy' - 'we' is too simple and too vague, besides which it seems to speak primarily to US and Chinese posters.
Anyway, note that, for the US military and government, the China theatre was considered the least important of the various theatres of WWII in which US military personnel were engaged, whereas for the Chinese it was, obviously, the most important.

Getting Away: Six days hiking in Sichuan's Yading Nature Reserve, part I
Posted byTK2018: Yes, I agree. Very nice writing, not just of the place but also of the experience. I envy the author this one. In reading the article I found myself remembering a few experiences I've had in similar mountain country decades ago (I hope this doesn't sound like boasting) and thinking the author and I had attained more or less the same plane, something we could share if we met - I could identify. Not everyone can express it this well.
