Albazilla is blocked
Would you believe it. Albazilla and its forums are all blocked by the biggest wall of them all - the great wall of China. Yup, you heard it right here, the Chinese censors don’t like this site. Trying to open the site in Beijing, resulted in a server not found/time out error. I bet you, its that damn wikizilla with all that booby talk.

hmmmm.. if the chinese do not like boobies.. why do they mate like they do?? I would guess one thing leads to another.. but ok..
Probably they operate on a white-list approach.. ONLY the ‘good’ sites are not blocked, all the rest is sent to time-out-land
and.. It’s funny that albazilla is also (semi
-blocked here at my work…
I guess albazilla annoys the block-authorities.. they just don’t get the point of it, so.. blockitt!

Yes i believe it is about time we stopped our anti-Chinese talk on this site… No more talk about democracy and freedom, we are killing of a potential audience of over a billion people. Yay for communism. Please white list us again.
so how was Beijing Chitti?

I would say DutchSpace is chinese oriented… or communist (but this last one only whispering!)
Chitti, we want the pictures! You tall brown man among yellow little people!

no, you got it all wrong duuuuudes….My friend Eirik moved there, and so was trying to get on the forums, and found this out.
Chitti aint going to land of the little people anytime soon. He’s trying to find a weekend in November to come and sample the beers in Delft.

Plus, you guys got it also wrong in another sense… they are not nearly as short as you might think. When I went there in the Summer of 03, yes I was taller than the average person for sure, but there were other natives (younger) that were as tall or taller. (Think Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets). Having a good diet in the early years is definately key to average height, and things have changed a lot over the last 20 years there. Do you think the Dutch were always known for their very tall height? Although now I think they are officially the tallest on average in the world, this trend didn’t start until the mid-1800’s.

wait, you’re tring to sell us the Dutch diet as a good one? I mean, to grow up well we need butter, cheese, eggs and all the deep fried things?
September 12th, 2005 at 11:13 am
eggs and dary products have lots of growing-up stuff inside.. That’s the objective.. growing up chicks and calfs! Of course, if you eat too much of that, you end up growing sideways and backwards as well..

Guga, and for the girls, also from the front… Last time at the airport, we found a perfect T-shirt for you: two boobs with written on them “In Holland, not everything is flat!!!”

only time I have in november is after the 21st, as I have a three week towing tank experiment that starts on the 31st of October.
Re : Chinese + short, ok, so its a little stereotype that is probably not true, like all Indians talk like Apu, but if you look at all the chinese students here in my dept. they definitely could use a diet of cheese and milk.
Still on the subject of short people, I read on BBC, that in the state of Kerala, India, there is a tall man association, with the qualifying height being 6 ft, or 180cms, so conclusion - indians are short as well…:-)

Hmmm. You are right. In fact, it looks like the Chinese average is more than 2cm taller than the one for India…

Americans are also continually shrinking…
