Leprakranke waren in ganz Indien und in allen Teilen Kalkuttas ein alltäglicher Anblick, aber Hilfe nicht nur ein oder zwei Münzen in ihre mit Lumpen umwickelten Stümpfe zu werfen, war nicht der Fall.

The interesting thing about the China story, getting back to the macro and micro, and as dire as I think the macro story is - due to bad credit and credit extension that makes Greece and Spain and the U.S. look like child's play - when you get to the micro of individual companies, they look even worse.
