...most cursory probing reveals plenty of homegrown edge. Consider the Underground, a fortnightly indie-music night that takes place in venues across town, whose organizers have showcased more than 300 bands in its five years of existence. That's irrefutable evidence that if you're looking to tap into live, original music in Hong Kong, there's an astonishing amount to be found. (See Asia's best bands...
...will be kinks. Chinese customers are likely to be just as sensitive to price as American ones, if not more so - and even China's low-cost manufacturers have yet to figure out how to make a reasonably-priced battery.

You've got to move on, and then you live with the vote - I mean, that's what Teddy would do. And if there were absolutely no way of getting it done, Teddy would find a road. If it meant changing it or working it through, he'd do that...
