Sorry to go off-topic, but here's something I once heard from a korean friend of mine:

There is/was a student group n Korea who saw Peru as having a special link to Korea because it is shaped like the other part of a broken coin, meaning that Korea and Peru form some sort of ying-Yang symbol and, once united, would have some unprecedented power.

If anybody knows about that, please post.

As for the matter at hand, the Tibetans would probably groove on it.
Not that it would be in our collective better interest.
