Tibet has to be one of the worst places to live. So high in the mountains but SO little water. The people there are LUCKY to bathe once a year. One of the pit holes of the world.

So many people were HORRIFIED when the Chinese forced themselves into Tibet...and I am NO fan of the Commie Chinese but EVEN THEY are better for the Tibetans than their own worthless, useless leadership and government.

“The Dalai Lama is a personal friend of my son, the documentary film maker. Son went to Tibet, made it up those high mountains and has stayed with the Dalai Lama there and they have met twice since then (I don't remember if another one of those times was again in Tibet) and are friends. Dalai Lama is a gentle, sweet man wanting humankind to be kind. There is not an angry word in his vocabulary. It was terrible when China came in as they have no respect for this gentle man.

I'm trying to remember, but I think in that first film, the child to be the next Lama had been chosen and was in that film. I could be wrong about that as the first film was a while ago. Sometimes I get to see the films son does, but some I do not see. I have a movie CD player that has the British system on it so I can see these films. The British system is different from ours and if you don't have that system you cannot see films from there. When a
British one is put in my player, it senses the system and uses the British system to show it.

It's also possible the Dalai Lama film was shown in this country on Discovery or History or National Geographic channel. I feel sure some of you have seen his films on those channels but you didn't know a Texan made those films in another country. He has also made films in this country for National Geographic and Discovery.

Anyway, the Dalai Lama has a Texan for a buddy.

You are indeed a fan of the "Commie Chinese" and the holocaust they have perpetrated in Tibet.

YOU are horrifying.
