On Liability

Giant, easy-to-fall-into pits along the sidewalk; single lane roads through the mountains; low, knee-high walls several stories up. A far cry from the plexiglas and beware signs, indicative of a market economy that permits-money making by litigious means.

From the AP (Updated 2007-02-12): 80 vehicles collide in south China; 10 people die.

From our trip to Xi'an: Rick la-la-la-ing tunelessly but loudly, to keep our hotel driver awake on the nearly empty afternoon Airport Expressway.
