Haha, I lived in China about 18 years ago and remember eating tons of 'ice cream' in Hefei during the summer.  Glad to hear things haven't changed.  Does anyone know why that stuff doesn't melt?

I *love* the voice acting on this lesson.  I just attended a month-long conference in CO where my roommate was a grad student who grew up & attended undergrad in China, (非常好的练习说中文!), and the person ordering the noodles in this lesson talks exactly like he did.  I think it's sort of a college-aged male way of speaking in China; the bursts of rapid words.  Anyways, it brought back good memories and I commend you on your realism!
