ImageShack®. But their habit of regularly losing pictures has made me move to Photobucket. Imageshack managed to send me two emails in one day. The first apologised for permanently losing some pictures. The second said they had never lost a picture, ever, ever, ever. But they couldn't find the one I was complaining about. Idiots.
Sorry if any pictures are missing. I'll eventually move all of them.

" it's life, and life only"
posted Friday, 24 August 2007
I'm sure it's nothing to do with me, but almost exactly one month after I ranted about these killer machines on the streets of Liuzhou, the local newspaper announce a safety campaign. The headline roughly translates as “Electric Vehicles: Please steer to life!” While I applaud every effort to improve safety, there is only one way to make these things safe. Ban the stupid, dangerous things! Get them off the roads.
Of course, a safety campaign only means that the local authorities will stick up a couple of posters, pat themselves on the back and have a banquet to celebrate - while everyone else carries on regardless.
