WH Henry, recently looked for some census numbers and I looked at wikipedia pages. For 2010 and 2000 at least they detail the ethnicity questions. Interesting to see the changes. It is a complex matter that can have some use but also liable for manipulation for political and economic reasons. I am mixed in response to their approach and in my answers as well.

Random music comment. Being a New Orleans refugee, I always pay attention when someone covers a NOLA tune. The Lords in 1967 were doing Rockin' Pneumonia with was first released in 1957. A 10 year gap. 1970 (for simple math purposes) was 50 years ago. Also very interesting to reflect on the pop rock changes in the 5 years from 1967 to 1972. I wonder if they seem so great just because I was active consumer during that time. Does a 20 year old now hear similar major change from 67 to 72.

When I was a kid in Japan, out cross-the-street neighbors invited us for dinner (this was 1987). They had a toilet w/ a seat that could be warmed, blow hot or cold air up your bum, and a bidet. My bros. and I were fascinated by it. So, my brother goes in there, accidentally sets off the bidet, and couldn't turn it off. He got me, and asked me to turn it off. I had been in the country for almost a year, so my hiragana was crap, so I couldn't figure it out (I was 11). So, the bathroom got flooded w/ 5 cm of water before we came out of the bathroom and begged our hosts to turn it off. They laughed (we weren't invited for dinner again, but allowed to played in their factory industrial lot after work hours.

Doing the census online was reasonably painless. Much easier than I remember with the forms. Now more paper for the recycle bin. The "race" questions allow for multi-ethnic identifying people. They do use the questionable term "race" instead of ethnic origin, but whatever.

I shared a chicken milanese cemita Sunday night. When partner went to pick it up, she found that they had the door locked, you had to call and the cook brought your order to the door and handed it out. Lots of chipotle peppers and Mexican mozz. sadly no papalo. So huge could barely eat half.
