Finally, an explanation for why Chinese people seem to have one leg longer than the other. Sorry. Some guy tried to tell me that they used sticky rice instead of mortar in the construction of the Wall. Make of this what you will. The brilliantly designed forts feature delightful vistas through medieval windows that allow…
