Given I have hundreds of hours now after my knee replacement to use my mind for purposeless thoughts; is anyone from South America??? Russia? Mainland China? ( thinking about censored Internet)

Hi Aprilbaby!!!! How are you!!! I hope your coping well! You seem like quite the trooper!

Sorry, I have nothing to add to your original question. Just wanted to see how you were and say hi! Hi!

I'm day by day thanks! Day 8 was my absolute worst wanted to literally die day but my BFF came over and stayed for several hours to comfort me. I have had several awesome days and today is another "is this ever going to end " day. Can't wait to be "normal". I appreciate the thought!!!!

I was pretty much guessing we didn't have anyone from any of those places but you never know! I wondered if we did have anyone from mainland china could they even tell us without putting the self in danger?

Really? Would people in China get in trouble for being on here?

The Internet is controlled and monitored by the govt of China - they maintain this strict policy to prevent their citizens from getting too attached to the ideals of the rest of the capitalist world. They see outside influences found on the Internet to be a threat to their communist organization and the support of their people. No FB in China (that I'm aware of), news sites carry altered stories and photos, false economic reports are published.

Or am I thinking of North Korea? I'm sure media is censored in China too, just not to the extreme of NK, whose citizens are at the mercy of one state-run tv channel.

I knew you were Asian, but didn't know the specific area.

People are idiots the world over - you need to feed the trolls a harrowing tale of your escape from Kim Jong-il's harem of concubines. I think it should involve shaving your head and military espionage for sure.
