<< What????? China is ~5000 years old; we are about 200 years old.>>

China exists since 1949 as a continuous government. We are the second oldest continuous government around. I love telling my German and Italian friends that, and even more enjoy telling my French friends that they are adolescents! They somehow disagree.

Also, I'm impressed with the way W. is handling the China incident. He has not inflamed things despite their dumb provocation. In the long run, and I am a VLT investor, economic interests require cooperation from both sides. Especially since AMAT wants to build there, and I still want cheap electronics.
