That's pretty gross. Did any of you guys see the story about the beads that metabolized into GHB if swallowed? The trick was in the glue. The spec the Chinese were given called for one kind of glue, and the Chinese opted for a much cheaper glue that had one less molecule. They probably passed on the cost as though they used the more expensive, non-GHB metabolizing glue and pocketed the difference.

This kind of stuff is not new to the Chinese. I'll paste for those who don't feel like sifting:

On paper, the Chinese had the superior ships, and included numerous ten-inch and eight-inch (203 mm) gun mounts. However, the Chinese had not seen fit to engage in gunnery practice in months prior, and the Chinese guncrews were somewhat unprepared for the stress of gunnery under fire. Corruption seems also to have played a role; many Chinese shells appear to have been filled with sawdust or water, some Chinese officers fled the engagement area, one vessel appears to have used its guns to store pickles[citation needed], and in at least one case, a pair of 10-inch (254 mm) guns seem to have been hocked for cash on the black market.
