I'm not sure we should be *encouraging* Chinese citizens to break any laws, but I'm fully behind supporting those that choose to do so.
As for bad publicity for the Foundation, I'm not a member of the Foundation and never made any claim to speak for them (not that I accept that it would be bad publicity, mind you). I do feel that this discussion is "beyond the scope of this mailing list" though. If you'd prefer to send any responses to me off-list, please do so. Another place you can reach me is at http://jnanabase.org/index.php/User_talk:Anthony, although I don't log on there as often as I used to.

Actually I believe it was you who brought this up on the mailing list Anthony,although I do agree that this is not a matter which is within the scope of this list. I must however mention here that you claim the Chinese citizens are being *oppressed* by their Governemnt. I, personally, also feel the same way, but then let us not forget that these policies are put in place by an elected Government-perhaps for legitimate reasons- and the said laws are a part of China's internal affairs. So for us to pass judgement on this matter would not be entirely fair-since we are both citizens of other countries.
