 Heir Apparent -- Interview
The Seattle band HEIR APPARENT are back together after 10 years, and are going to be playing the WACKEN OPEN AIR FESTIVAL in Germany next year.  I interviewed guitarist Terry Gorle about the reformation, along with a few questions regarding the past, present, and future of HEIR APPARENT.
They formed after Heir Apparent dissolved.  We dissolved due to several reasons, but primarily because of certain members' reluctance to acknowledge our responsibility to investors and the people who helped the band exist in the first place.  No drug problems, just egos and lack of commitment.
Just know that the disappearance of Heir Apparent for the last 10 years was not my idea.  We plan on making up for lost time!  Check out the website at http://www.heirapparent.com!  Thanks Jym!

It is unusual and noteworthy that Hu Jintao was able to work with apparent ease with leaders of both the conservative wing of the CCP (Song Ping) and the liberal wing (Hu Yaobang).
He apparently used his illness to arrange several medical visits back to Beijing, and by mid-June 1990, after 18 months on the 12,000-foot plateau, Hu developed "altitude sickness" and returned permanently to Beijing to recuperate.
