Can someone tell me about the tradition and religious (?) significance of the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Happy Anniversary Chinese Pod! You are a great outfit and although I've only recently joined, I'm telling everyone I know about you.  Thanks for all the great work and care you put into this.

John and Jenny--thank you for this great summary and advice. Makes things a lot clearer. You do a wonderful job and the whole C-Pod is a terrific and invaluable site.

This was such a useful and great lesson. I love just about any kind of train. I've been on the Trans-Siberian where we actually were pulled by steam engines at one stage. And wrecks of other trains still lay, literally smoking, by the rail-side.  I've also ridden the Shinkansen in Japan which was an amazing contrast to the TS. But trains are the best. I'm glad to see that they are making a "come back" through expansion in China. I wish the USA would follow suit but it seems so behind in its attitudes towards so many things these days, including transportation.

Do you think there is a potential market in China for central AC?
