<div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I spent much of my life studying about China and l 
and worked there, as well. While China's screaming at Google may help pressure 
for better active policy here, it is not really an effort to eliminate ghastly 
stuff from their people's reach, but more likely to protect a market that only 
the Chinese military is big enough to get away with there, and has for a LONG 
time. </div>
