Yes, I understood. Actually, I'm not fond of
buzz words either, especial those commonly
applied to tea. We're on the same page. Still
guilty, though.

Anybody here know how far the finger tap
on the table to signify "thank you" extends
into other areas of Chinese culture? That
is, is this signal commonly used in other
context beyond tea? Just curious?
