We shouldn't be blocked. It's not like we're actively promoting Chinese civil rights :P

We're heading off topic (well kind of, because it's still about China) I thought i should post a bit about my trip to China, since I didn't say much, so ill put it here:
China in General
   1. China has a LOT of people. More details: Well I went to Shanghai for the whole time
   2. Most people speak Chinese and can't speak English. Also lots speak Shanghai Dialect.
   3. Street signs are in BOTH English and Chinese. E.g.: 东兰路 -> Donglan Rd
   4. Also I don't think there are any 'streets' (St), mostly roads (Rd)
World Expo
   1. Each country has its own building, called a Pavilion. Well the size depends on a few factors, such as if your country can afford a big separate pavilion, or have to go into a joint pavilion with several countries. For an idea here's a pic of the China Pavilion (at nighttime with lights on: http://images.china.cn/images1/200712/416040.jpg
   2. Talking about lights, lots of pavilions have night lights on their pictures. However, China and the UK in real life, well only a small amount of light were actually working.

Yeah I think China has like 30% of the entire earth population XD

I heard it was hectic on roads, though, with the traffic jams and stuff x.x

Found this on the Internets. This is "rush" hour in Beijing. And yes, apparently it's a highway.

X.x. I would hate having to wake up 3-4 hours earlier to get at work. It reminds me when I still went to college and someone climbed the Quebec Bridge and threatened to commit suicide. There was a traffic jam all the way from the bridge until where I live now. (although when I arrived in the jam it was 2x shorter. Otherwise it would have been about 10 miles of traffic)

yeah, beijing looks pretty bad, however, i don't think i saw that extreme case during my time in Shanghai though. even though shanghai has more people...
China has about 1.36 billion out of 6.5. just a bit over a fifth of the world population

i heard on the news about a multi day long traffic jam

Yeah it's insane. I hope they can do something about all this traffic, because some parts of the country are still not very developed so when they will be it will be insane. X.x

Btw nice signature :D

thanks, i just changed it because my old one was uninspiring. the progress bars look even better than i thought. on word they look flat, but on omnimaga they actually look a bit rounded. anyway. new topic, specially for signatures!
