Recruitment has stopped for this study. The response from our social network and this website was really amazing. A big thank you to everyone who expressed their interest to particapate.

The response has been quite good. I will contact everyone who have PMed (very grateful btw) by tonight or tomorrow morning.

And for the nice lady who asked, yes the "nice bottle" is an import

I'm sure you and your husband will enjoy it.

i know a little bit about the market here. what is this for?

by **vivek123** » Wed Jan 16, 2008 9:54 pm

Mat< check your PM.

Mat
Your the resident wineo. I have a question. If the cap on a bottle of wine turns counter clockwise to open, is it a more expensive wine, then the ones where the cap turns clockwise to open.

I may have been ripped off. It all depends on your answer.

Sammy,

Try to remember "lefty loosey, righty tighty". This always works with Nightrain. For those of you unfamiliar with nightrain - check your GnR albums.

mate, it's all to do with the Southern Hemisphere, Northern Hemisphere thing. As that very informative episode of The Simpsons once showed, the Southern Hemisphere (where i am from) has a different centre of gravity. our grapes therefore grow in negative gravity compared to yours, therefore putting them under the same Stelvin (screwcap) enclosure that you have in the North would cause some serious interhemispherical forces to basically implode the bottle into negative atmosphere.

I hope this helps with your response.

Mat

To all those who have expressed interest and PMed, please do include your contact numbers so that I call you tomorrow and fix up a meeting time.

If anyone has friends in Bejing who might me insterested in particapating in the study. Please do let me know via PM.

Thanks again everyone and look forward to meeting you all.

Pete > check your PM.

I must admit, we've been slumming around the lower end imports, but I like to think that we know our way around a wine bottle........ drop us a line!

by **vivek123** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 1:57 pm

We still have one vacant spot for Shanghai so if anyone is insterested, please let me know.

by **Mister_happy** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 3:04 pm

Tesco wine at 15rmb a bottle suits me!

by **ChicoStateDisciple** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 3:38 pm

Where can I find a good Zinfandel selection in Shanghai? I see it as a few stores but it is usually a very generic brand

by **andyfff** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 4:18 pm

Wow, you went to Chico State? So did I. Graduated in 1987, the year after Playboy voted us the #1 Party School in the nation. We worked hard to earn that title, I tell you...

by **vivek123** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 5:57 pm
