Tue, 3 June 2008 Owing to a problem which Time Warner Cable/Roadrunner technical support has been completely unable to identify, let alone fix, tomxchao.com will redirect here temporarily. My apologies to anyone who looked for it in the past five weeks and was unable to find it. The tomxchao.com website ("The TXC Information Centre") may possibly be reborn as a blog site, or at least get some kind of redesign. Also, it's possible that the Peculiar Utterance of the Day podcast may return in some form in the near future. Keep checking for updates. Thank you.
