For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.
From today until July 4th, a holiday-related quiz question will be posted everyday. The quiz master at the celebration will give a beer or two to the person or persons who correctly and/or uniquely answers the most questions first. Yes, timing is everything in this contest. However, creativity will be rewarded too.
Question #1:
What was the name of Scotsman who not only was an American revolutionary war naval hero, but also became a Russian admiral?

I thought John Paul Jones was in the rock band LED ZEPPELIN.
From wikipedia:
John Paul Jones (born John Baldwin on 3 January 1946) is an English multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, composer, arranger and record producer. Best known as the bassist, mandolinist, keyboardist, and co-songwriter for English rock band Led Zeppelin, Jones has since developed a solo career.[2] A versatile musician, Jones also plays guitar, koto, lap steel guitars, autoharp, violin, ukulele, sitar, cello, continuum and the three over-dubbed recorder parts heard on Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven".[3]
