What was the flight leg? Where to where? That may help the massif

but that might require us asking our colleaguie a sensible question instead of posting anonymous comments like "you sir are a cock" (one of his favourite sayings)

Don't bother, found it!

Here's some info from keyhole

You know what? Actually you guess it right. They are fortresses with moats. However, they are not really that ancient. They were built around 1960's to 1970's, by Grand General Lin Biao, the chief of Chinese Millitary back then. The main purpose is to defend a possible Russian invasion. There are totally nine of them, each of which has adequate firearm and sufficient water supply. These constructions were abandoned in late 1970's and now some of them are developed into resorts.

Hey, it's okay, trademe me has lots of identical competitors too which offer no insentive to move from trademe. Maybe if they offered something different from trademe, then they may switch. But hey, don't take my word for it.

lol, over-analyzing things much? use whatever works for you, I'll continue to use my host cause it works for me and I make it available for others to choose to use also.

I was using iforce, but sometimes images don't load and it seems to be down fairly regularly. tinypic, imageshack, imagesocket all have too many adverts or stupid features and photobucket is just a clusterfuck unless you pay for pro.

I only replied to MoP cause he was all like "HEH I use this OTHER HOST, what do you think about THAT?".
