I am flying to KL this afternoon. I will spend the rest of the week there. For the next few months I will be splitting my time between KL and Hong Kong. If you want to meet up, e-mail me closer to the date.

Rudi:
Talk Turkey: Speak frankly or bluntly.
The origin of this phrase, as I understand it, comes from a story about a native american dealing with a eurpoean settler in the "new world." The european and the native american were out for a day of hunting together and at the end of the day had bagged a turkey and a dove. They couldn't decide how to divide the spoils so the european suggested:
"I'll flip a coin. If it's tails I get the turkey. If its heads, you get the dove."
To which the (smarter than he looked) native american replied:
"Never once did you talk turkey to me."
