I laugh at stupidity. And for the Chinese to send a guy into space riding German technology perfected by Americans is for them a good thing. The fact that they did not broadcast live greatly reduces the value of the symbolic event. The Chinese are 1 for 1 in using this German technology perfected by Americans. Of course once American nohow get's involved usually any damn fool can get lucky.

LOL even you have figured out how to use the millions of transistor at the end of you finger tips. American invented transistors.

<<"We congratulate the Chinese people on the successful launch oftheir first astronaut into space. >>

That's great but it was done 40 years ago by the US. The US and Russia have people living in space for months now. I wonder how many Chinese people will die before China reaches where the US and Russia are now and still have people dying in the space programs.

I'd rather wait and congratulate China in 2009 when they complete the Three Gorges Dam, a power and water resource that will really help the country. I hope they are working on a fisheries program for the lake. Lots of high quality protein could be raised as a side benefit.
