You did mean to link the Chomsky article?
I had read it, but it was not to do with fracking, was it?
We were in Hanoi for the thousandth anniversary of the founding of the city. I forget the legend now....something to do with a turtle.
We walked around the lake in the centre called Hoan Kiem which was decorated all round with big balloons and light shows and many people out, and naturally I thought of what it must have felt like when Nixon bombed it that Christmas. (Was it to facilitate the negotiations in Paris?) And the 2M dead.
