According to a throwaway paper out of Phoenix, AZ, American women are
adopting the little Chinese girl babies who have been left to starve in
China's orphanages. The paper, THE ECHO, claims a lot of these women are
single women and Lesbian couples. Miraculously, the Chinese government is
permitting it instead of playing dog-in-the-manger or yowling about
furriners & preverts. This puts them several up on the late unlamented
Rumanian regime.
ObSF - a story in ANALOG years ago suggested that the vampires of Eastern
Europe had instituted their various regimes as a means of ranching their
prey rather than depending on the hunt. Kim Newman took up the suggestion
later in ANNO DRACULA and BLOODY RED BARON. Romantic it's not.
