I get on Facebook are not even Americans. I did allow a Chinese professor from the mainland spending a year in the US only because I was interested in the subject she was teaching. I have no idea why she wanted to be my friend since the only friend she had was Chinese. Most of the others are Russians living in Russia. Many of them are professionals. Why me, most of them had not even been born when I was a Russian linguist for the government.
