@MissA: Good for you girl. My advice is to avid one night stands. Especially with old geezers unless they are kind and generous ;-)

Pollution is an economic issue.

Capital is needed and operating costs are increased. China has, with full understanding of these costs, is continuing to purse a policy that ignores the long term costs in money and human suffering.

Zhou Xueshuang, a petrochemical pollution expert at the environmental ministry, said no factory has reached the goal of zero emissions because this requires huge capital outlays for special equipment and engineering. "Zero emissions can only be achieved in a laboratory," he said.

Environmental experts said the concept of zero emission was popular because it provides a seemingly legitimate solution for industrial companies to start production in environmentally sensitive regions.

"Zero emissions is a fairy tale created by interest groups," another environmental expert said. "Everyone knows it is hard to achieve, but without it, how can a project get launched?"

Isn't a bit sexist to ask the guys only? MissA ought to be more forthcoming about her curiosity.

Is she Chinese? Or, is she just a white chick who can't get the eye of a dude dating pretty and thin Chinese?

"Busch family" indeed! Ha ha ha
You sure got the US figured out.

@Magni: Maybe you are right.The US State Department says what they need is jobs. Obama reminds us of the crusades. We could also stop educating women, stop all free speech, end democracy and accept our fate as infidels, which is death or slavery. Kumbaya.

BTW it is a Seekers or PPM song. Don't think the Doors did it:

Hear me crying, my Lord, kum bay ya;
Hear me crying, my Lord, kum bay ya;
Hear me crying, my Lord, kum bay ya,
O Lord, kum bay ya.
