Not so sleeping giant

The Strib was disappointing today. A bunch of people must be on vacation or something.

But I am fascinated by the lengths to which China will go (and can go) to make itself fit to host the Olympics. The latest installment: an AP story from the Strib and more detail found by Google News.

I can't imagine living in a country where (a) this amount of clean up would be required, and (b) the government could just shut down whole industries or ban car traffic to achieve it.
