For once, I'm speechless

Here follows the response by someone commenting on my blog post: Disaster aid and the violation of liberty.

"嘿,你的部落格不錯耶~~只是想跟您問聲好!!"

Now, to make the comment, I assume the person understood my post and must speak English. And since I'm America with a not-to-Chinese-sounding American NAME, you might think they wouldn't assume I'm Chinese in their reply.

I do, of course, understand the exclamation points at the end of their comment (evidently they have such grammar marks in Chinese or they just wanted to convey their vehemence in 'merican).

They have achieved something no one else has been able to achieve in conversation with me: I am speechless (though I did consider writing back in French).
