Last of The 5th Tone

can you find Rachel?

The Fifth Tone is closing Friday. After four years of good business the owner and manager are moving in new directions. 

Last night I joined in the final English corner, which kept Drew or me occupied every Tuesday for the past year. Occasionally these nights were agonizing, squashed in a hoop of shy middle school girls, coaxing them to speak. Yet most Tuesdays were genuinely meaningful, talking worldview, politics, current events, ethics, and history with grad students and young professionals. I made four lasting friends, two of whom are coming for dinner on Saturday.

Farewell Fifth Tone!
第五调再见!

look there's Dad Jon captivating the youngsters;
what were you guys discussing anyway?
