A Dead Duck

Richard Burger, ur-China blogger amongst ur-China bloggers (I think only Hemlock of the Big Lychee Blog has been going longer, and he writes mainly about Hong Kong) is finally shuttering his blog after 15 years of writing.

I've been reading his blog since at least 2006, and Richard has been kind enough to occasionally host my posts there. It has always been an interesting discussion forum and I'll miss the raucous debates that used to be a regular feature of it.

Sad news indeed, but you still shouldn't shut yours!
Happy new year.

Socratic_Dojo is actually Karl Frazer Usher of Shanghai, formerly from Wallasey, (obviously) pretending to be a 21/22-year-old Chinaman ... why is China always full of weirdo expats?!

Sorry your comment got spam-filtered JR, and no, I definitely have no plan to shut this blog!
