This is a personal statement about my pride as a craftsman and how my work is used.

Masahisa Tsujitani, a craftsman who has made shots for numerous Olympic shot put medalists for the past 40 years. He told Chinese Olympic officials that they will not be receiving any of his products at the Beijing Olympics. It’s his way of protesting the crackdown in Tibet. (Los Angeles Times)

    Good for him, but unfortunately, it won't make any difference. The Chinese Olympic committee couldn't care less.
