Goodbye.')

I am currently studying Chinese in college and plan on returning to China this summer. I have a few specific questions I'd like to ask you, but I have not been able to find your email. Could you please supply it? Thank you - Owens Mr. Kennedy, I’m fascinted by your blogs; they illustrate facets of China I was previously unfamiliar with.

Further down in the post there's one part that was interesting, but I couldn't find anything further to clarify, that being that their boss was part of the China trade mission to Libya, and that in the end he filed charges against the three workers. None of this was mentioned in the Southern Metropolis piece...
