It is very good, not only full of fun, but also have very touching plot about the Beijing Massacure. It also includes some real scene taped in the Tien An Men Square during the massacure. Some of the information was offered by the Amnesty International. I asked an American about his evalution of the episode after he read the script, he said he was quite sure that the Americans will like it. It's a very good time to have the Americans recall what happened in China, and give more sympathy to the Chinese pro-democratic movement. --JD =========================================================================== =========================================================================== News Transmission chi@vlsi.uwaterloo.ca (or) -------------------- --------------------- Local Editor: Bo Chi chi@vlsi.waterloo.edu .
