| It? supposed to be a good movie - and the director is great, so I hope the movie is the same way. I heard that in the time of QinShiHuangdi everything was structured in small groups. In the army for example there were four men the smallest group and everyone was responsible for the doing of the other. If someone makes mistakes all the others get punished for that, too. The same in civillian life. Villages were divided into groups, or the whole family was responsible for the doing of one member. The same in weapons construction. If a worker makes a mistake the master gets punished, too. It? a system of fear - but it worked out well during these times. Everybody was checking the other. |

| yes, it is a pitty about my poor Chinese. You miss a lot in a country where you can? speak their language well. I have to change that and learn better Chinese - if I get the time for it. Oh, tomorrow is my birthday - what is your present for me? Your name?, your picture? or the place where you live? |
