http://i.imgur.com/AqNdG.jpgI have a friend in the textiles business. He is a New Yorker and proud of it, as he is happy to tell you at every opportunity. He owns a textile company and has been spending an increasing amount of time in Shanghai, because that's where his industry's production has moved (among other places). He almost knocked me over when he said present day Shanghai "makes New York look like a cow town."
