Spots have started showing up on the English Language TV station out of Beijing (CCTV.com) sort of like, "the more you know!" Public Service announcments...but centered around the UN treaty from 1979 on the use of Aggression and Force in space and on the Moon. Tucked between the News and the WAY TOO FAST Chinese language instruction TV show....30 seconds of some music, outer-graphics and text scrolling across the screen is about it. But I just noticed them, as before this every single other commerical is "Oritent Real Wood Flooring" and a very odd British commerical for Jade Travel ;) -------------------------------------------------- The Gundam Mailing List MK-II [email protected] Archives: http://www.gundam.com/gml Help: Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this in the BODY: help list
