When were you there last? A good friend of mine out here just returned from Beijing a few weeks back from working there 6 months and said that the masks were pretty commonplace.

What really sucks about this is that it shows the extreme levels of policital correctness our society dictates.
Instead of China being ashamed and apologetic for their horrible air quality as they should be, all they have to do is feign that they are "offended" somehow by the mere suggestion, and all of the sudden the situation is flipped around and people who merely expect clean air are insensitive assholes.
Fucking rediculous.

I just got back this saturday. Was there for 3 months, however I went all over China. I was in Beijing, Shanghaii, Guilin, Weihai, JhanJiaJie, Wuhan, Hangzhou, etc etc. I was in over 12 provinces and visited a million different little sites and cities. We hit both rural and urban china. I loved Beijing so much when we had a free weekend a friend and I went back for a weekend after we had spent 2 weeks there previously. Maybe he works in the industrial part of the city (typically cities in china are not like America, they are split up by industrial, commercial, education etc.). So it may be common just there, but in all others parts of Beijing that I was at least in (education, commercial), as I said, saw one person with a mask.

There's probably a few clicks involved, too.
- KPWSerpiente - 08-08-2008
Chinese clicking language FTW.
If this becomes MM need to know knowledge I can ask one of the approximately 1 billion Chinese lings who work in my building but the clicks will be hard for a white guy lik me to type out.

I wonder how many families were threatened with death for those kids to learn that sequence perfectly.
