Happy Chinese New Year's to everyone in the glassyeyes list

Since so many of our online glasses are produced in the Orient, the
timing of Chinese New Year is relevant to us all.  I found this
explanation on one of my favorite sites, and thought it could warn us
about extended delivery times...best explanation I've read of how/why/
when for the Chinese New Year's celebration.

Got this from dealextreme.

"The Lunar (Chinese) New Year holiday is around the corner. It's the
most valued time in the local communities here in the East, just like
Christmas in the West.

Due to the nationwide observation of the holiday, Hong Kong Post and
the Customs will be temporarily closed and ## shipments will be
temporarily paused between Feb 12 and Feb 20, 2010. Some customers
will start to get shipment notification immediately after the holiday,
but live postal tracking information for orders shipped between and a
few days before and after these dates will likely not be processed and
shown in the postal system  immediately after the holiday due to post
holiday traffic at the customs and HK Post.

Meanwhile, ##’s website will still be functioning and you can still
make orders as usual. But Customer Service will be reduced between Feb
12 and Feb 20. During the holiday, limited staffs will still be around
to handle the most urgent matters in the support ticket system to
ensure everything will catch up right after the holiday."
