Well, China does know about besieging...

The last line talking about some events being either postponed or outright cancelled doesn’t bode well for the athletes.

From blizzards to this? Sounds like the plagues of Egypt during the days of Moses.

We're getting dust/sandstorms about every four or five days. Nasty ones.

It's just that time of year. They'll stop around May.

Calling AlGore!....Can you explain this one please? Your the weather expert, right?

The IOC is nutz for awarding Peking the Olympics.

Given the pollution and even the weather - HOT & HUMID - they might as well hold the games in the Sewer System of Rome.

Yet, color this environmental hellhole exempt from the vaunted Kyoto Accords.

Look out world, when China runs out of sufficient water- next 20 years.

I am amused by the response to Level 5 pollution. An automatically-triggered warning for people with breathing problems to stay indoors or avoid going outdoors. That is really going to help.
