Shall trot out the old chestnut that those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it (am prolly misquoting, since never did it after Sec.2, so apologies)
Animal Farm, for me, calls to mind both the cartoon and the W!ld Rice production. A scene from the former, showing the pigs seeming to morph into humans at the end, was juxtaposed with a shot of the CCP leaders (mainly Deng and Li Peng) in a local TV program about the Chinese government in the immediate aftermath of Tiananmen when outrage about the crackdown was still widespread.
And I shall cease talking about matters of which I know not :)
incidentally, there are Azabu Sabos everywhere in Taiwan. Never been to one either here nore there, though, more's the pity.
