Dear John,

This can be explained by:-

31 July 2000 to 28 August 2000 is considered the `dreaded' Chinese 7th
month.

The Chinese seventh month is considered the month where hungry ghosts are
let out on earth to roam. Thus, during this month, many people avoid buying
a new house, moving house, buying a new car, opening a new business, leisure
travel.

To applease the ghosts, offerings are given to the `ghosts'. Road shows are
also conducted e.g. makeshift tents are erected on empty lots or car parks
in neighbourhoods. One purpose for this road show e.g. artists will sing
songs and entertain both human guests and the purpose is also to entertain
the ghosts to keep them occupied from creating mischief.

I am not sure if there is a coincidence but during the 7th month, I always
noticed a higher significance of elderly death around my country and
obiturary notices in the newspapers. (Not that I look at it everyday, do a
sampling.) I have not gathered any statistics on this so it is just a
passing comment.

Hope you can now have a better understanding of the nature of the Chinese
Seventh month.

Thus for me, I would also take the advise of your friends and to open the
business before 31 July 2000.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
