How is it to live vicariously through the lives and stories of others?

Like the Cambridge History of China?

Um, as I mentioned before, I've actually lived in and out of China for several years and there are many freepers who, while they may disagree with me on some issues, can none-the-less verify that (including the one who posted this thread).

(Just in case you missed it)

And Wikipedia (lol) and several books written by Tibetans (not westerners who never set foot in Asia) and from several Tibetan lamas born in Tibet that I know personally and whose personal testimonies I have read.

 

Using your misplaced logic, I suppose I can now claim supreme knowledge on this subject. While serving as the President of the Chinese Language Club at my university a few years ago, I had the privildge of sitting down for a luncheon with the Dalai Lama's brother and several other Tibetan Monks from the Tibetan Cultural Center in Bloomington.  It was quite a treat and a very enlightening experience. And while I have never had the honor of meeting his holiness, the Dalai Lama, I have been fortunate enough to hear him speak during one of his many trips to Bloomington, IN.

 

See how fun these childish pissing contests are?
