...symbolic events continued each evening. Banquets in the capital took place in the gigantic Great Hall of the People that commemorates the Communist takeover. Each Chinese at the table concentrated on making sure every American plate was filled with heaps of food. And then, of course, came the endless rounds of toasts.
