Yeah, I know. But I'm a sucker for pictures of the Himalayas, dagnabit.

Or, to be less sarcastic, I would like to point out that the Students For A Free Tibet website has information on starting a chapter and raising money but no plan for freeing Tibet.
How is "Students For A Free Tibet" different from Amway (besides the pretending to sell products)?
Friends of Tibet, how do you propose doing it? Through issuing critical press releases? Who reads them? Even if you get one published, I doubt that Hu Jintao reads the Great Neck Daily Shopper and he'd sleep okay even if he knew that you don't like him. I suppose we could have economic sanctions and see what happens when all those cheap manufactured goods stop flowing here and the world's second largest economy stops buying our shit.

I shouldn't poke fun. If they can help Tenzin Delek, then bravo.

Tibetan Buddhist do not wear orange nighties, they wear maroon table cloths. Orange nighties are Thai monks and lack the multi-phonic chanting skills and enthusiastic choreography that the Tibetans excel at.
