They're sending students abroad as part of this propaganda campaign, designed to make China look less belligerent and aggressive. And these students are also helpful spies as once they get jobs in ...

Re: Planet of the apes

Excellent review, one of Chuck's best this year. Loved all the behind the scenes stuff. I went to french school and we read the novel for grade 10. The book was enjoyable enough.
