Earthquake problems

Hi, no posts this week until now and may be infrequent until the network issues between China and the rest of the world are fixed. Not sure how well this has been reported outside of China as I cannot read about it, but in case you didn't know, the earthquake that hit south of Taiwan on 26 December damaged network cables feeding China to the American continent and onwards to Europe affecting communications from mainland China to phone networks and websites hosted outside of this part of the world, so this week I have not been able to access anything much at all except for Chinese news until now. Apparently satellite communications have been put in place to cover some of the traffic but it's only a part solution, and this is first time I have been able to access my usual sites and it's painfully slow, others are still not available. So all for now...

Happy New Year
