    China’s Winning Schools?
    The real strategic challenge isn’t Chinese fighter aircraft. It’s China’s focus on education.
    Nicolas Kristof should be able to differentiate between education and training. 
    The Chinese are very good at training.  It is easy to test.

    Make friends, ask questions, ask for alerts.
    Floods are not sudden events.  The local authorities have to be awake and aware.  Bursting dams are sudden.  Flooding takes weeks.
