The Made in China Tooth fairy will get you too Jakub.  Our Jimbo is
SCC's resident clown. Has been for more than 20 years. We have to
humor him once in a while or he'll feel neglected.  You are quite
welcome to join Jimbo in his (mental) cage. I'm sure Jimbo wouldn't
mind.  We certainly don't.  You are also welcome to visit China and
see for yourself what it really is like.  Since you can't speak
Chinese you can say every politically incorrect thing you like.  No
one gives a damn and you will never know if the police actually arrest
people for saying such things. Just don't wave a Tibet flag.  That is
a really politically incorrect thing to do right now.  It's worse than
waving a red flag before an angry bull.  You may be lynched before the
cops can rescue you.  Now that you have been properly prepped go visit
and have a good time.  Guaranteed you'll have lots of fun time.
