Wow, that looks like an awesome event Matt! What are they doing with the H16's now? Are they all going to stay in China to be used in their programs, or are some going to come back to the USA for sale or...?

A few years back I read the book, "The World is Flat, Hot and Crowded" which is the sequel to "The World is Flat."

In the book the author talks about the emergence of both China and India's middle class, and the need for cheaper energy for them to power their ever increasing technology growth. He makes the very good point that in China, they don't have to deal with the EPA, or any other government regulations which hold our development back. The Grand Leader simply says, "Make it so" and so it is, oh, and it's all paid for by The State.

I'm sure they didn't have to go get permits to use the beach front, or wrap the buildings, or pay for the buses, or any of that other stuff that we would have to do if we tried to run the same scale event here. I'll bet they didn't pay a whole bunch for liability insurance either!
