I remember Larry Wall, creator of Perl, saying that Chinese writing was
fascinating to him because it was so portable. People in neighbouring
provinces can't talk to each other because they don't understand each
other, due to mutually incomprehensible dialects. Yet they can all read
each others newspapers!

I didn't know that this worked backwards in time for thousands of years as
well. Thanks for that info. :)
