The People's Glorious DNS Service

The People's Republic's Glorious DNS servers are not allowing me access to this server... it took quite a bit of tinkering and 50 megs of downloading before I finally figured out how to get out: X-Windows from nice.fas.harvard.edu running Mozilla (for some reason, a simpler VNC session on ice.fas.havard.edu running Netscape 4.75 doesn't load Moveable type correctly). I still can't get my computer
online using my Uncle's DSL (I'm transferring all of this onto my Uncle's slow Celeron laptop using his flash memory keychain). Yes... I am persistent but hey, if you can read this., then I've won. I really need to get to bed, but now at least I know I can get through this. Julie Hackenbracht, take note (then again, you probably can't see this in this totalitarian Catch-22 scenario). I have a lot of things to say about China... most of them depressing but they will have to wait until I reach Dongying tomorrow. Right now, I'm at my uncle's house in Beizhou in Shandong province. Not the most cosmopolitan of places....
