Yiwu, I was writing some more of China's history a couple of days ago. I put a company I met in Beijing in contact with a company I know in New York with a view to the Beijing company getting money from the New York company via and IPO and being listed in the USA. bcfchina.com and newyorkglobal.com I liked the guys running the successful Chinese company and they are quite interested in this idea. They said according to Chinese custom they should buy me a dinner in appreciation, which would be nice. They want us [son and me] to give them work [outsourcing of software development by NZ, Japanese and British companies]. I and millions of others are in the process of recolonizing China. The colonization process was never about simply stealing and conquest. <imperialists could rob other nations at their own will.> Trade was where the real action was. India and China did well from British colonization, while it lasted. Wandering around Tientsin, the British influence is written all over the buildings. Now the American influence is being written all over it too. A gigantic Wal-Mart is under construction. Wal-Mart is pretty big in China already, using China as their manufacturing base. The USA doesn't have so much cash, as credit. There's no more gold standard. It's all about credit and trust in political process. The USA has mountains of credit to slosh around the place and is pixelating more each day. That credit is being piped into China, filling it up and powering it with elastoquidynamic energy faster than the Three Gorges power project. <the US is NOT the one in mid-20th century either, when it still had enormous amount of cash it could squander wherever they want. Nope, those days are GONE, forever!> Far from it Yiwu. China Unicom announced a couple of days ago that they are going to start GSM1x service in a couple of months. Handsets are now being ordered. GSM1x is actually CDMA but with GSM as an option for when there is no CDMA coverage available. Every time a Chinese buys a GSM1x cyberphone, they will pay me money. I'm pleased to be writing China's history and making their history a LOT more pleasant than when they were writing it themselves. If they didn't use that silly squiggly hieroglyphics stuff to do the writing, they might do better. Look how bad it was for half a century with Mao's MADness keeping them in penury. Now they are roaring out of the cage and in a few decades will be all swishy and swanky, provided they don't go ape in the Year of the Monkey and pick a fight with Taiwan. The USA and Taiwan would write a lot of history if Hu Jintao should try that on. Already, downtown Beijing is looking quite plush, though too many Chinese hassled me, wanting me to write some more of their history by giving them money - many of them are "language students with an art studio and would I like to buy a painting?" At least they have got the write idea of learning English, like you. Have you given any more thought to your plans to murder Taiwanese people? Would you burn them alive with big nuclear bombs or cut their guts out with ancient Chinese swords? Do you plan to do mass civilian murder or try to limit your killing to people involved in direct military activity? The logistics chain goes right into the heart of civilian life, so I can understand you'd want to murder people producing the food and support for the soldiers who are trying to defend their freedom to choose how to live. You could be tried for supporting genocide when we catch you. So be careful about where you live. You'll have to hide like Osama and Saddam. There are good hiding places in Hutong septic tanks which you could convert to a bunker [like Saddam's]. Do you watch snuff movies or torture chickens for fun? I'm wondering how you indulge your interest in murder at the moment. Meanwhile, I'll go on doing my good works, writing Chinese history and guiding them towards civilization.
