No autographs, please

In the past week, I've been interviewed about my opinions on the differences between "Chinese" and "Western" food (the interview was videotaped) and photographed while pretending to drink Chinese tea. Both of these occured at the request of students (some of whom are mine, some of whom are not) who were working on projects for other classes. I've also been photographed -- for no apparent reason -- by several of my students ("Teacher, may I take a picture?").

These are all normal events in my life these days. Suffice it to say that my startle threshold is much lower than it used to be, especially around cameras.
