Does anybody read Chinese? I need
someone to look at this design and see if it actually says FREE TIBET in Chinese. I don't speak or write Chinese, and used Google to translate, then kind of muted it so that it isn't all that easy to read anyway. But I don't want it to say "Drink Kool-Aid" or something like that. Thanks.

1. It loosely translates to "Tibet has no cost".

Actually, I have no idea. I don't read Chinese. I just thought it would be funny if the "Free" you put in the translator was the "at no cost" form of free.

:rofl:

Sorry.

7. it's just a translator widget from Mac, i think it was on here when i got this thing.
i always reverse check things though just to make sure it's actually correct.
