>- Don't bother going to Macao >-s > A dissent. I went to Macao the last time I was in the area and had a grand time - and had a bowl of the spiciest vegetable soup I've ever had. Couldn't tell you what is was as my buddy and I had both thrown ourselves on the mercy of the little old lady who served us (her English was every bit as good as my Portegeuse or Cantonese), and I think she must have had a sense of humor, because you could see the rest of the folks looking at us when she brought the food out - I believe we were supposed to gasp and cry, but we were true chile-heads and loved it...we immediately became part of the "in-crowd" there..;>) B ************************************************************************* "The wisest man I ever knew taught me something I never forgot.
