RE: Chinese joke at 30min: Just wait until they have their first real recession, like the one coming soon from the credit bust. The Chinese people will revolt. They've just been growing almost uninterrupted for 30+ years. Wait for the interruption when the discomfort and misery of the common people rises.

She kept interrupting him with her lame questions as if what he was saying was incidental.

Joseph’s constitution is truly extraordinary. There is no way I would ever be able to put up with that constant bobbing for an hour and a half! In order for me to watch it I had to cover her up with a blank text page from another program. If any one reading these comments are friends of the interviewer PLEASE let her know how distracting her behavior is. An hour and a half of important discussion and all we can talk about is her constant distractions. By the way, what were they talking about? Guess it wasn’t that important......did I mention that she was a distraction?
