In this neck of the woods, they don’t just open a show; they Open A Show.
Members of the foreign press were invited to both the Tea Ceremony and Opening Ceremony this morning. Trust me when I say nothing is done on a small scale here; there was a bank of cameras and plethora of film crews in attendance, in addition to the relatively small number of guests invited to the soiree. It was Oscar-stage kind of stuff, complete with a galaxy of government and TDC dignitaries. By the time it concluded, there was no question this wasn’t going to be like any other show.
Dorothy, we are most definitely not in Kansas any more.
