Wierd how that boot sector computer virus was a protest highlighting [url=http://www.forbes.com/2009/05/27/tiananmen-square-anniversary-mao-opinions-columnists-china.html]the Tiananemen Square events.[/url] Things are so much more cynical these days.

I read the link - and am astonished to find that the most important fact about the Tiananmen massacre is that Ronald Reagan had been the President of the USA not long before.

I mean: [b][size=14]WTF???[b]

I was living in Hong Kong when it happened, and I'm still sorting out the meaning of the event, then and later, but I am absolutely certain that it's not primarily a tribute to Our Great (Former) Leader.

WTF?

This is funny, especially with some expressed concerns on ObWi about Tibet:

[b]Audience member:[/b] “Can you give us an example of a leader we should look up to as a positive influence?”

[b]Dalai Lama (after thinking for a few seconds):[/b] “President Bush. I met him personally and liked him very much. He was honest and straightforward, and that is very important. I may not have agreed with all his policies, but I thought he was very honest and a very good leader.”

The answer was supposed to be [i]Obama[/i]. That Dalai Lama is really the stupid!
