Been to Taiwan lately? I've been buying tea off of eBay.

The UV light might be blocked somewhat by the window ... when cleaning things with light, I just stick them on the back porch.
Activated carbon from a pet store is probably better than the Pur filters ... you can buy enough so next time when he borrows and uses watermelonn cigars, you're covered. Bleah.
I've not been to Taiwan in several years although I still teach 1-2 classes per semester.
I am friends with Wangtea on facebook and have Chinese students that help me order, although they do sorta speak English there. The daughter is quite good actually. This way I am ordering from a shop I visited last couple of times I was in TaiPei. They still use charcoal for panning tea there. I'd rather not buy Taiwanese Baozhong from HK or China. I have ordered from a number of places - most have lower grade teas. Still drink it though!
