Subject: Travel out of the states with this temp. stamp?

Now that the INS has put all these stamps in our passports, this question
may seem appropriate here:

   If I want to visit China this winter (suppose I don't have the green
card mailed to me yet), is this stamp a sufficient evidence to both the
US INS officials and Chinese border police that I don't need a VISA to
leave China and return US?  Or are there any other documents required?

   Also, anyone in the Houston area have the address & phone number for
the Chinese consulate?  And any advice how to have passport extended from
that consulate?  Thanks!
