"How naive.... Apparently, you got to watch those Chinese like a hawk or else they're gonna slip one in on you. "

George: Yes, how naive... of you to write that about the Chinese, as though they are the only nationality that can "slip one in on you". Any person, business, or country is equally capable of screwing another. Why, just recently, Enron and several other AMERICAN energy companies were found to have manufactured the 2000-2001 California power crisis by employing "market manipulation strategies" (such as shutting down power plants unnecessarily), costing millions of Californians (AMERICANS) $7.5

BILLION dollars. Haliburton (an AMERICAN company, I believe) is reported to be over-charging AMERICAN taxpayers many millions of $$$ in Iraq. Kind of close to home, isn't it? So GET REAL, and stop picking on the Chinese.
