Maybe we should bring them both to China Wok (wasn't that
approximately the name?) next year and insist on all of us using
chopsticks? It would be interesting to have a competition between the
two of them regarding whom could eat a dish with a Firebird most
gracefully with that equipment! Paul Beach should be the referee
(geographically living between Russia and the US, probably being
somewhere between Nikolay and Jim in age and - with the help of Sean -
big enough to separate them if things get out of hand).
