			<description><![CDATA[Months of phone calls, emails and IM conversations ensued &#8211; with the receiver of each systematically shirking responsibility for the mess, and passing the issue onto other oft-incommunicado souls. Then I had the correspondence below delivered to my inbox the other day. Since, unlike my associates, I have a speck of decency floating around my body somewhere, I have X-ed out the names, organizations and phone numbers mentioned in this &#8220;letter&#8221;.&nbsp;]]></description>

Yet they&#8217;re about to get turfed out of the city; sent packing with their yellow hats and now school-going kids. Apparently, these people are not as pleasing to the foreign eye as the &#8220;European-style&#8221; roofs they&#8217;ve been slapping on the city&#8217;s formerly flat-roofed apartments.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I am not going to jump through the various obtuse hoops merely to get an eleventh Chinese visa stuck on the inside of my passport (plus, I am running out of pages). So, thanks to these silly, probably &#8220;terrorist inspired&#8221; or more likely &#8220;flag unfurler motivated&#8221; immigration rules, I will not be able to sing happy birthday to my daughter when she turns two years old.
