The smog in Beijing should be relatively under control for the Olympics.
They are shutting down all factories for two weeks prior to the events. They are also removing close to 50% of cars from the roads.
Interestingly, they are also making *everyone* learn how to queue properly (every Thursday is learn to queue day) and they have made it illegal to spit on the streets (if you know anything about the Chinese it is their love hoarking up a great loogie and spitting it out).
This is the power of centralized government.
