Well put. I don't have any wish to fight either. I was just making an observation.

As for the posts by Phil. You are right he is very trusting for someone who has never been to China. But then again those who have will all recall the initial 'honeymoon' period. I guess when he is over that and reality sets in he might change his tune. Youth these days are generally more arrogant than in my day too so I do follow your sentiment there.
