If you're thinking about Asian countries with immense populations, you might be thinking of China, which has about 1.3 billion people. They outnumber us all--and anyone who doesn't like Asians is indeed going to be in trouble because China and India are soon going to be out-businessing and out-"technologying" us all. In many ways, they already are.

My question to those of you who think a response like TAG's was justified is since when is a response like that ever justified, particularly to a perfect stranger and even if that stranger is making a seemingly weird request? If it were worded differently and not so rudely, it would have been a perfectly OK statement. But it wasn't.
we think alike to the point of scary...
