I would think the people of Hong Kong would be more offended by the similarities of the December 26, 2004 tsunami than Hurricane Katrina, just based on the higher likelihood of their loved ones lost in ~that~ calamity.
Then again, depicting Hong Kong as a high-tech fortress seems to fit the actual profile of that city now. :P)
Nah ...I conceded you have the moral high ground. XD I was just groping for some kind of parable (aloud). Something to the effect that: you're analyzing a work from the top down and arriving at something profound while I'm starting at the profound and diluting it by working my way to the top (or, surface). ^~
(I'd do well if I could dissect my readings this semester like you always do; if only time permitted.) ☺
