Chinese shoe factory strike, Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Asics, New Balance, Timberland.
Most people have not heard of the "World's Factory" or "Factory of the World". Which is where the current shoe factory strike is raging, it's in an area of China called the Pearl River Delta or PRD.
The capital of the area is Canton, which is located 75 miles NW of Hong Kong.
The population of this megacity area is a staggering 63 to 120 million people.
In 2001 almost five percent of the world's goods were produced here, and Hong Kong has over 70,000 factory plants in the PRD area.
Thanx goes to MapQuest® the best free maps and directions online, for the map screenshot of the PRD area.

NO CELL PHONES ALLOWED. ILLEGAL?
Someday, somewhere on the planet when you go somewhere, you will have to check your cell phone in at the door or leave it in your car, because it will not be welcome on the premises. The only place that we currently know of that has this restriction are courts. But what if a park were to implement such a novel idea? To see no one tethered/enslaved to their mobile device would look weird but enlightening.
A park, a hill, a warm day, lots of grass, and running, romping, rolling.
That are the ingredients for real fun, fun that wears you out to the point where your glad to go to bed early.
No screens, charged device, internet connection, cell signal, or batteries required.
