My email spam is sometimes interesting here

Nigerian bank-fraud offers? Discount drugs? Male enhancers? Sure, info about all of this still pours in. But every day in China I get messages like the one below, which I don't remember getting anywhere else. Charming, in a "workhouse of the world" way. This is cut-and-pasted exactly as it arrived, except for the XXXd out name of the company in Shenzhen that sent it -- a real company, by the way:
