Olympic nightmare: A red tide in the Yellow Sea

BEIJING: With less than six weeks before it plays host to the Olympic sailing regatta, the city of Qingdao has mobilized thousands of people and an armada of small boats to clean up an algae bloom that is choking large stretches of the coastline and threatening to impede the Olympic competition.

O, that sucks.

Lol @ silly Aussies.

Just me or has China had a difficult time with the Olympics?

If they are prepared to use AA guns to keep the weather in check, I'm guessing that in the next day or two they will send some bombers to drop cluster bombs to clear the algae out.

They have. The ironic thing is that China tried so hard to get this year's Olympics because eight is a very lucky number to the Chinese and the games start on 08/08/08.

really? neat.

the problem here is most likely nitrate fertilizers. china is just too young of a country and too poor and undeveloped to host these things smoothly. i don't really know why they got the bid in the first place.

China is a massively rich country.

It's also an extremely old country.

WTF eight is the lucky number? They tried to get in in 2000 since they think it would be the "Chinese Century". When in hell did 8 become the lucky number for the Chinese?

It's all cleared up now I think. That's the good thing about China, you can just force a million people to do the job and they'll do it and it'll be done. No questions asked.

(Just alot of angry people, who can't do shit anyway)
