I think you should quit stalling and tell us your reason for the Chinese presence at Dome C.
And also, I know several people that have been down the ice (at Mawson, Casey and Davis stations), and I myself have the option to spend 6 months or a year down there with my job. Not one of the people Ive known have said anything about military presence down there.
Do you have a source for any of this?
