I read recently that in the capital city of China, Beijing, one thousand new cars were being licensed each day. ----------------------- Clip ---------------------------------------- The one upside to that is that they're not big SUVs, MPVs, HumVs and gas guzzlers like we have. Consider the number of villages in China that you can only reach by bicycle, horse cart or walking. (I understand that there are a million of them). When roads reach them so will giant trucks hauling goods to the local Wal Mart.
