I have always wanted to write a screenplay featuring a mixture of English and Chinese dialogue. The problem is that the software I have seen for writing screenplays does not support Chinese characters. I could try Microsoft Word but I have been told film studios are extremely fussy about format. Do you know of a solution?

Montage is the only software that will do what you want, but only on a Mac. I like its design and you can test the product for free.
My husband and I have too many chargers (all incompatible) for our portable electronic devices. Wasn't there a battery-charging plate, about the size of a mouse pad, invented a few years ago that supports different devices? When will we see this charger, or devices like it, sold in stores?

DQ: What you refer to is known as a universal contactless battery charger. There are many patents out for such a device and various science journals have written about them. These devices have not yet appeared in Hong Kong shops. This may be due to problems implementing the technology. It is a great idea, of course, and the first company to market such a device will surely make a lot of money. Watch this space.
