I guess that it won't be long till all the paper-archives are replaced

    Toward a Worldly World Series At this point, I wish to turn to an exploration of "Warming Trends" in relation to the changing significance of baseball to show how changes in the perception of America and Chinese Americans can change the way Chinese American texts are received.
