Your Reply: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	[QUOTE]Originally posted by hlbjr: [B]This is a bit disturbing... apparently this article was posted by the official Chinese news agency Xinhua reporting on the success of the mission (including quotes by the taikonauts and mission control) before the mission even launched!!! For me this really calls into question the accuracy of some of what we're being told.

The country's official news agency Xinhua posted the article on its Web site Thursday, and remained there for much of the day before it was taken down. A staffer from the Xinhuanet.com Web site who answered the phone Thursday said the posting of the article was a "technical error" by a technician. The staffer refused to give his name as is common among Chinese officials.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> Harvey Brown Delray Beach, FL[/B][/QUOTE]
