That's the lesson I take from the Olympics. China will have to cooperate or compete with the Masdar project in Dubai. I am hoping for great technology out of Masdar, a project with MIT.

I guess materially, that could be the case. But I bet they would sell for upwards of $20,000 at any auction. Still, great points today. China is using the Olympics as a screen to shield them from the responsibility they have to the planet. Is that all a gold medal is worth $220? I guess materially, that could be the case.
