tell you what Clyde, OP, I have read your post from top to botom and all the replies at least three times before i add my reply. first of all. what you have written is so so accurate and in no way biased. it has given me much food for thought but especially concerning your acknowledgement that we are now in the midst of ramped up nationalism. In fact it seems to be getting unbearable right now to the point where any kind of disprespect is treated like a face off. China is full of arrogant assholes and i am doing my last year here then i am gone.
