ARTICLE: "In Booming China, A Doctor Battles A Polluting Factory: Fouled Rivers and Lakes Spark Flood of Protests; Officials' Mixed Messages; Inspired by Erin Brockovich," by Shai Oster and Mei Fong, Wall Street Journal, 19 July 2006, p. A1.

Looks like he showed up right on schedule!
Great piece by Oster and Fong, both of whom are great.
Pluralism is beginning politically in China, from the bottom up, and environmentalism is the spark, as I also noted in BFA.
