I am sure that everyone on this board has a huge respect for our Chinese friends and are happy to see well deserved and growing affluence for so many of their people.

The tenor of the board is that the people running the new China juggernaut are omniscient and incapable of making misstakes.

My experience consists of 20 days of vendor surveys in Southern China and Shanghai and implementation and managing a handful of agreements with Chinese companies and institutions.

These folks are certainly not any dumber than the rest of us but they are not as individuals and organizations much smarter than the rest of us as well. They are not infallible.

There is certainly no one on this board who wants to see a SP of $5 more than me. Everything looks great so far but lets not take anything for granted about our new partners.
