Z, know why I discount those environmental horror stories? Judging by the horror stories about the Amazon jungle, going about 22 years ago, the place should be a Sahara by now.

It was being destroyed at a rate of a Belgium or whatever country journalists used to compare, every year. There was people -and you'll always find people trying to make some money with their ideals- thinking in buying a couple of trees here.

And they didn't take lightly when I laughed about it!!

The bloody jungle is there standing and will be there standing until the next glaciation coming 60.000 years from now will change the weather real good.

Now, relax. In 22 years time you'd be writing some story about China just like I did now.
