Chinese workmanship is often shonky, but not always. They manufacture most of the phones now with a tariff included in the price to US citizens. Their mega building company Evergrand is currently going belly up with a debt of about $500 billion in think. Yet with nuclear subs, the Chinese are...

Agreed a fire "deep" in a cave would most probaby not be detected with Thermal imaging. Hot air does rise and I'm thinking a fire just inside a cave might give him away ? Such grief and sadness is permeating the Vic Police force and others, my heart goes out to them. I just read the Police are...
