	** Is this their first attempt? Very much wondering! Tell me.
 	   I'm not regularly reading scc, so dunno!

	** Pretty messy above, the guy from China was obviously having trouble 
	   using that text editor. Hey! Comrade, don't just get too excited, ok?
	   Read the doc and get prepared will you? 

	   Hellos to our beloved comrades, too:  Hi, guys! Welcome aboard! 

	   I understand quite well that you're not going to like too much being
	   critised too much. People are, unforturnately, doing so everywhere,
	   not just in schk and scc(I'm definite about that although I don't
	   always read). You just can't do much about this, well, nobody can,
	   ... but actually you could, I mean if you'd kill us all. 

	   Well, WRT what you're genially asking of us, that we shouldn't speak  
	   ill of our beloved CCP, that we shouldn't use too many "bad words", 
	   you're quite right, man - but we don't. We aren't trying to be
	   offensive or aggressive. We're just * righteous * you know. So, we
	   are only using some rather colourful language, that ain't bad, you
	   know that. It's always right to use the right words on the right
	   people.  Our beloved chairman told us.

	** I can guess, this's a tough one. I must negatively disagree. You're 
	   seeing this very tough issue as a quick matter of shutting the mouth. 
	   Things just aren't always as quickly solved as resetting the attribute
	   of something(unless it's just a file of some sort!). 

	   People's Will be done.
	   
	   I'm definite the issue will be solved when China becomes a democratic
	   country. I'm not urging her to be strong and economically affluent
	   (not very likely in the not-to-distant future, don't tell me, I know
	   that), but please, try to recognise your people's right.

	** Wow! It's real quick and easy, huh?

	** Me, too! 

	   I very positively agree. But the Aussies aren't really putting
	   down "Asian cultures". Well, some racists are, not the bulk of 
	   them, I have a couple of schoolmates who are really into the
	   Japanese language, one of them speaks Mandarin better than me
	   my gal friend loves chinese music. Maybe you're not really
	   speaking of the "cultures" I suppose!

	   Last point to make here: 
 
		Please be more open, comrades. Don't disenfranchise, don't
		stuff every bloody thing up. When can we have a country to live
		in? The sun has gone down and we deserve a better China you
		know.
