China Mobile sets up on Mount Everest

Boy is this GREAT NEWS: ...the repressed people of CHINA have set up cellular phone coverage on Mount Everest at 17,060 ft., 19,095 ft. and 21,325 ft. levels.
China Mobile hired yaks and porters to transport equipment to the station sites. (I wonder what YAKS and PORTERS TASTE LIKE?...CHICKEN?).
All of this for use during next year's Olympic torch relay, which will take the flame to the 29,035 ft. summit. (...the inside bet on THE FLAME to carry the torch: ...Richard SIMMONS...).

Apparently, a worker called the cell phone of China Mobile general manager on Tuesday afternoon and had a clear signal.
The construction was reported as "incredibly difficult" because the oxygen level was only 38 percent of what it would be on the ground. (...apparently not as difficult as the issue of allowing your people to have FREE SPEECH).

Immediately after the call workers began packing away the equipment for the winter; the station will be reassembled before the Olympic torch relay next summer.

GREAT, NOW IF I COULD ONLY GET A CLEAR SIGNAL AT THE CORNER OF DEANZA BLVD. AND STEVENS CREEK IN CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA THE WORLD WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE...

Now that I think about it, I do get a signal at the CHINESE RESTURANT a half block away... coincedence?...hummmm
