Those wildly spitting Chinese

I hope you caught this gem of an article from the NYT: No Spitting on the Road to Olympic Glory, Beijing Says.

It discusses the city's efforts to improve manners and curb what may be offensive behavior to foreigners. One of the biggest obstacles, spitting in public.

Want to talk about night and day. The attention to detail by the Beijing Organizing Committee puts Athens to shame. I am looking forward to moving there in May, and I promise to post as much as I can during my two month stay.
