Bill Gate will have a dinner in his dinning room with a baby-eater from China.

The googling I just did suggest that this report stems from a single
report by a pro-life activist almost 11 years ago. Every other reference
I've seen is based on this one report.

There are damning photos, but they don't match the report. And what
about the lack of follow up in conventional media in 11 years? No deluge
of Internet references?

I'm still thinking that the report is self-serving and the photos
doctored. Still its disturbing.

My comment wasn't about you being xenophobic. My point was that urban
legends are often spawned from xenophobes.

Yes It's a shame that politics often prefers prosperity over values.

Throw it a way and install MythTV.
