BILLM, yes, the Chinese have the concept of hot/cold but I am no expert...I am sure some of our Chinese friends can jump in here.

Just got back from 3 weeks in Shanghai and against the advice of my 女朋友, I ate LOTS of 荔枝(Lychee)...I love them and can't get them in US.

You see they are a hot food but I cannot remember what the hot/cold terms are in Chinese medicine. Something huo (hot)...

BTW-I realized that CPOD's new office was two subway stops away and I made it over one Saturday but nobody home :( -the security guy was happy to snap my pic...

antoniov-I don't believe you are supposed to use foreign currency and I would suggest you don't want to anyway. It will only confuse negotiations and even if someone would take them, you will get the worst exchange rate...c
