And once you sign up, add a comment to this thread: it won&#8217;t appear until I approve it, which is the way of new comments, but this way if you see a thread you&#8217;re aching to comment on in a timely way, you will not have to wait for approval. Once I tick the little blank and approve your first comment, seeing that you&#8217;re not offering us inheritances from Hong Kong, you&#8217;re in, and can give and take without my approval.<\/p>\n<p>Think of this as one free-for-all ongoing convention.
