ps: i thought a...... a 'Not Say Da Lu' fad?<br />ps: i thought about what you wrote on that and came up with this idea: Ma made the move to 'officially' bless the use of the word 'mainland' because he knew it was already in common usage, even if it was not expressed with a political or One China hue. Now, the same people will continue to use mainland as they used to but not it will LOOK like vastly more people support Ma's move and by association, his cross-strait policy - genius! Even FTV and Sanlih can't help use the word!Ben Gorenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07215358295386075741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-72608647520259232392011-02-15T00:06:23.031+08:002011-02-15T00:06:23.031+08:00Glasses without lenses?
