  • Re-verified 2026-09-21 and again 2026-09-22 (slice 09211400-22): corpus re-grep (生活充實俱樂部 / Living Well Club) returns only the work records already linked in this section (works 1, 3, newsletter, concerts135, ourjourneys356 + -eng) — no new memoir, letter, or event mention of the club. SKIP: verified-saturated.

  • Pandemic-era remote program (2021 memoir by 楊遠薰): from ~July 2021 the club (abbrev. LWC) moved its weekly Wednesday program online; president 林茂清博士 invited 楊遠薰 to present on 《提倡台美文化》, and the weekly shows were hosted by anesthesiologist 彭昕醫師, who recorded each session, edited it into a YouTube video, and emailed the link to members and speakers weekly without complaint. 楊遠薰 gave five lectures for the club over that year. 彭昕 returned to Taipei in Oct 2021 and died shortly after (memorial article 2021-09-23). No wiki page yet for 林茂清 (LWC president) or 彭昕.
