Wonder when Horatio's going to tell us about his China trip.

Hope it wouldn't have been too nightmarish for him...

Are they?

Well, one of the Tomb Raider games is set in China/Tibet. So why not? [img]smile.gif[/img]

That wall's being pretty heavily vandalised, actually. Can only hope dear Horatio will show it some care and respect when he goes jogging around it!

BIG and Lots of people (1.6 BILLION) and food....hmmm after that it is a distant thought but...shoddy steel in knives (I bought a couple that were made in China) Cheepo trinkets, low cost clothes....and did I mention PEOPLE? Lots and lots and lots of people [img]smile.gif[/img] ummmm I guess I can also lump in there rotten human rights record and not one of my top ten places to live or visit (mainly I can't visit because my government doesnt allow me to) those are my thoughts [img]smile.gif[/img] Oh one last thing... I really really hope that the Chinese Government doe not work the way Tom Clancy writes it in the "Bear and the Dragon".

Typical. Very typical.

As if American records on human rights are really that much better.
