      Like epic fail as in a pyrrhic victory, or in the mission goal to get rid of them? I honestly don’t know that much because I am so distrusting of anything in English about that era of Mao, yet I know a LOT of mistakes were made and don’t know a quality analysis of it.

    I’ve never understood how you could actually effect sparrow populations in rural China. I used to consider it one of the L’s of communism until I thought about the logistics of it.

    You might be able to drive birds out of a densely populated city with a bit of effort, but Mao-era rural China? What?
