Silberfuchs:
I rather enjoyed reading what you had to say and I most definitely agree with your views about the visible presence of the Peoples Liberation Army. However don't you think that perhaps you are being a little hard on me by using such words as "goose stepping rantings", "flags on every corner", "fanatical power" and "one upmanship". Afterall I am only in a sense flying the flag and trying to remind those who respect it that the Ta Mao-Tzu are still very much with us. In any case tolerance of transgressors is not a bottomless pit.
