During the 1988 Olympics in Korea, Bryant Gumble made an ignorant "joke" about baby boys being S. Korea's biggest export. It embarrassed Korea and they closed its international program. It re-opened, but the number of children it will let the US adopt has gone down drastically. There are many people who want to close China's international adoption program and I'm terrified they will use the Olympics as a way to get attention and I'm terrified at what China will do in response. Sorry for the long post, I get a little jumpy when the Olympics are mentioned. I think I’m going to be holding my breath until the closing ceremonies.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06544076384942487436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920826.post-67712757808923090662008-07-21T13:01:00.000-04:002008-07-21T13:01:00.000-04:00I have interest to see the Great Wall of China and...I have interest to see the Great Wall of China and some stuff in the heart of China but that's about it. The Olympics is just too big of an event to actually participate in for me. I've been to Southern China already so I know what you speak of in some ways.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I've got a 'special' post out there on my blog now.Ed & Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00730956006290504616noreply@blogger.com
