SR,

I take it that you see no liberalizing of the Chinese as they grow?

My own take is that they are evolving to be more like us as their economic situation improves. My hope is that internal freesoms will follow and we will view them as a competitor and not as an enemy :-)

This is a gut feel I get from working with Chinese engineers and working on projects for them. Quite different from the Maoists I met from China while I was in University back in the '70s. They were all like cult members (scared the hell out of me).
