I was less than surprised when I clicked on the comments to see that Michael had already chimed in. I'm a neophyte, compared to the two of you (been in TW for about seven months, studying Chinese for about half of that),which is why I greatly appreciate both of you for your perspective on Taiwan.
Andrew, I know your focus goes beyond Taiwan and China, but when you do write about the little island where some of us are trying to blend in (and understand what people are saying), it's refreshing to see how Taiwan relates to the rest of the world, rather than what the weather's like in that netherworld that is Taiwanese/Chinese/American relations.
I'm going to check this out and form my own opinions on it.
Again, thanks to both of you.
