1923. A major earthquake hit Tokyo. It didn’t stop them from going into Manchuria.

Maybe it slowed them down a bit? Japan didn’t invade Manchuria until 1931.

Wonder how much the Russians are charging the Chinese for Siberian coal?

Gee. I wonder how Xixing Ping’s approval rating is doing. 100% favorable, due to fear of reprisals, no doubt.

For a number of years before outright invading, the Japanese were aggressively pushing heroine on the Chinese, who were not allowed to carry weapons while enforcing Chinese laws against heroine, due to some kakamamee treaty they were forced to sing. See Moment in Peking by Lin YuTang. Whole book is engrossing, and I can’t recall the exact chapter.

Floods in July they say killed more than 300 people, that is the official number. The more than means 10 times or 20 times more. They either undercount the dead or they don’t consider them people.
In July, a two mile long tunnel filled with rush hour traffic also filled up with water. After that the Chinese government put walls around both ends so people could not see what was inside even though they could only see the first couple hundred feet. Anyone caught peering over the fences or taking pictures was beaten on the spot by police. Nobody knows how many people died in there. They couldn’t get out by driving.

Always works like that in the Twilight Zone. That’s a fair measure.

My computer spell checks itself...badly. I type one thing, and later see what spell check has done to it. Unrecognizable.
Women shouldn’t carry long swords. Not because it’s threatening (it’s not), but because they can’t get the damned thing out of the scabbard quickly.

E-5; Agreed! I do not allow my wife to carry a long sword! Short swords and handguns! :)
Heroine; just a happy little auto correct error! (Stuned beebers!)
One of the things the CCP has been doing has been engaging in Weather Modification in an attempt control water in arid regions. Have they succeeded with the untended effect is that it may have resulted in too much water in the wrong places?

"Any updates on the 3 Gorges dam?"
I saw satellite photos earlier this year that showed the dam bulging and then later saw photos where there was no bulge in the dam. The tech companies censoring on behalf of or at the behest of China?

This rain will have no effect on that. Shanxi is on the Yellow River in the north, while the 3 Gorges is on the Yangtze River in the south side.

I told them Dr. Fu Man Chu was unreliable. Like a pulp fiction character or somebody out of an old movie.
