		<description><![CDATA[Cultural symbols have some kind of consistency. And rightly or wrongly (I mean, one could always present arguments that would show the inappropriateness of a symbol or sets of symbols), the associations have been formed and set through the millenia.

		<description><![CDATA[Read &#8220;The Da Vinci Code&#8221; in 2005, after deliberately ignoring it for quite some time because of the hype. And then saw the movie later. Well, the wealth of information (esp. regarding symbols) is generally sound. But it doesn&#8217;t hold a candle to the erudition of Umberto Eco&#8217;s &#8220;Foucalt&#8217;s Pendulum.&#8221; (I have yet to understand [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;The King of Masks&#8221; (by Wu Tianming), a heart-warming (if a bit melodramatic and, according to a friend, emotionally manipulative) Chinese film with English subtitles. Loved it. And am recommending that you take the time to watch it. Reasons to watch it: 1) It features a monkey. 2) It has nudity. (Extreme close-up!) Hahaha! 3) [...]]]></description>
