In spite of the fact my that profile suggests I live in Oregon, I spend the bulk of my time in China, which I know quite well. As such, it's my pleasure to invite you guys to come over here and understand what all the fuss is about. Pending availability, you'll be able to shack up at the Renaissance Beijing Capital Hotel at a really good rate, or somewhere cheaper (I like the YoYo Hotel in Sanlitun).

In terms of activities, the ballot is open, but I pledge to make myself available to accommodate all requests (Great Wall, spas, Xiangshan, etc).
