Topics A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H (#18; Topic 0)

Perhaps due to a beginner's overeagerness, I did not realize that, in just one week since I posted my very first blog on 12/29/05, I have done no less than 17. So that I would not wander afar from the objectives stated in the masthead ("The focus of this space will be on US-China relations, Chinese culture, and Chinese Americans"), I need to identify topics I think I am qualified to comment, and to add a numbering system to each posting. The following is a categorization of postings I have done so far and the number I need to add to them at this time:
A - Attitude (affirmation, discrimination): 6 - Manassas Va defines "Family"
B - Business and economics: 7 - Quote in One Billion Customers
C - Chinese culture; classics: 3 - Confucius on making contribution; 5 - Sun Tzu's Art of War;
11 - Sun Tzu's saying on New Year's Day
D - Daily life: 1 - Taxi service in Shanghai; 4 - Chinese America by Kwong; 9 - Firecracker for
the New Year
E - Education: 2 - Teacher reverence in China; 10 - New Year resolution: Learn something new;
15 - Teaching Chinese in US schools
F - Foreign and international affairs: 17 - Hong Kong tops in "Index of Economic Freedom"
G - Games and sports: 12 - Football and soccer; 13 - Computer as western chess champion;
16 - Big 10 Conference and Rose Bowl
H - History: 8 - 2005 - 600th anniversary of Zheng He's first voyage; 14 - 350-year Rock
