China bits and pieces

After classes today I’m off to the “big city” to visit a Chinese colleague, and dear friend, who recently had twin boys (also known as the Chinese jackpot when it comes to child bearing).  The secondary goal is buying cheese, pasta, and other western goodies from the import store.  On my way out, I wanted to leave you with two interesting pieces about China.  The first is about the respective abilities of Westerners and Chinese when it comes to squatting, and will provide quite a few chuckles (especially for those who have braved squatty potties in China).  The second, pictured below, are some interesting numbers from China.
