If you are really concerned about heavy metal toxins you can get yourself checked out at these locations.
I go there every 5 years to see if there are any changes from my previous findings

Mike, you really know your stuff when it comes to this topic. Did you recently have a child here in Kunming?
WOW!!!
Very impressive Mike - you covered all the 5Ws and then some. Wish more people could provide replies like you did here. Thumbs up. This thread is worth keeping for any others who may have the same question at a later time. Thumbs up Mike - great job!
Pooliekev - Please check your message board - unfortunately, the message board does NOT alert the user if they have received a message. I know I do not check my messages often so I usually receive messages long after they have been sent.
Some people have no friends or buddies, foreign or chinese.
They remain indoors most of the time and they order food online and have it delivered.
When they do go outside, it is usually during evening hours when it is dark and they usually wear a hoody and a Guy Fawkes mask so as never to be recognized and give up their anonimity.

The new Visa office is located at 118 Tuo Dong Road. There is no number on the building yet so do not bother to look for it. There are 2 passport photo shops on either side of the building. The office is located directly in front of the Kunming Museum. The bus stop is named - Shi Bo Wu Guan - Bus 1, 62, 109, 117, 145, 213, A1 and K3 stop directly in front of the office. Foreigners need to go to the 3rd floor. The Tuo Dong Stadium is located to the right of the office while Baita Road is located to the left of the office.
Weishan, Yunnan: Birthplace of an ancient kingdom
发布者Weishan has got to be one of the most original places left in Yunnan. Not commercialized and people are kind and not out for money.
Jianchuan was also the same but now that the highway runs right through it has already changed. Same for Shaxi and Shuang Lang in Dali.
Visit Weishan while you can. Great place to go and just hang out and relax, Wei Bao Shan is 11 km away. I like it because you can see all the temples by walking in a circle without having to backtrack. Much better than Shi Bao Shan in JianChuan, Dali.
Lugu Lake airport officially opens for business
发布者The new airport is roughly 25 kilometers south of the lakeshore - Those nasty taxi drivers are sure going to make a killing. Of course, they will NOT use the meter.
Yunnan border zone slated to cost 200 billion yuan
发布者The train sure does sound like a good idea - In that time, a branch railway along the recently opened Kunming-Hekou line will be extended 500 kilometers south to the border town of Mohan (磨憨) in Mengla County. When finished, the railway will pass from Yuxi through Pu'er, Jinghong and Mohan

Fracking comes to Southwest China
发布者Unfortunately, the map provided with the locations of fracking is very small and I can not make out the names of the locations. However, one can see that they are in the SE of Sichuan.
I will take some time later to make out the exact locations and provide the names of the prefectures and counties they are located in.
For those who are not aware, this is the juncture of the Min and Yangtze Rivers. Above Yibin, the Yangtze is also known as the Jinsha River. Below Yibin, the Yangtze is known in Chinese as the Chang Jiang or "Long River."
