Jiang Zemin / William Clinton Dialog Challenge



	In the tradition of the Sawicky Challenge (on what
	you would advise France to do on jobs and the Euro),
	(which ended without Sawicky's award ), and of the
	Kennedy tapes, (which recorded dialog during the
	Cuban Missile Crisis -- recently published in a book),
	the pundits of PKT are challenged to write the Zemin /
	Clinton Dialog tape transcripts (or summaries).

	The dialog between President Jiang Zemin of China
	and President William Clinton of America will
	take place for an hour or so this week.  You are
	to record them now, well ahead of the event, and
	report, not what they will say (unless you know), but
	what they would say if they were wooden dummies
	-- and you were the ventriloquist who put ideas in
	heads and words in their mouths.

	If you write in dialog format, you may use JZ for
	President Jiang Zemin and WC for his American
	friend.

	You don't have to enter the challenge, (for which
	the prize is passage on a slow boat to China), but
	I will -- sometime Sunday after thinking about
	what ought to happen after I'm dead between
	China, America and their neighbors back on Earth.
