      I need to stay awake for at least 4 more hours. Otherwise I'll really screw up my sleep cycle.

        Yes. I've been messing with my sleep cycle/rhythm the last 4 weeks (vacation). For the last 2 weeks I've been approximately in New York time. :-D The plan is to be so tired at 8 pm tonight, that I'll sleep for a good 12 hours, and be refreshed tomorrow.

              Isn't Chai a typical chinese tea? If I'm not mistaken, chai is the chinese word for tea. :~

                          Sorry to say it, but you are so wrong. Chai in Italian means nothing. Tea in Italian is tè.

                                        Cool. I suppose the Chinese may have borrowed it from Indians. I'm willing to bet money on that the japanese word Chya is derived from Chai too. :)

                                        Chinese began to plant tea as early as more 3000 years ago. It's unlikely to be borrowed from Indians. But for Japanese, you won't lose your money - because Japanese learned from Chinese and created their own characters based on the then-Chinese language in Tang Dynasty(618 A.D - 907 A.D)). Korea also learned from Chinese when creating their own language. You can find some Chinese characters in Japanese. But the meanings are completely irrelevant. -- modified at 9:20 Monday 7th August, 2006

                                          Chinese began to plant tea as early as more 3000 years ago. It's unlikely to be borrowed from Indians. But for Japanese, you won't lose your money - because Japanese learned from Chinese and created their own characters based on the then-Chinese language in Tang Dynasty(618 A.D - 907 A.D)). Korea also learned from Chinese when creating their own language. You can find some Chinese characters in Japanese. But the meanings are completely irrelevant. -- modified at 9:20 Monday 7th August, 2006

                                          I was under the impression they got their written language under the Han dynasti. Han, Kan in japanese (same kanji for both romanized words), is the base for the word "Kanji" (which literally means Han characters, or Chinese characters). Maybe the characters were invented during the Han dynasty. I'm really not sure now. :)
