Description
Thank you very much to Kyle Barbeau (Instagram's Easy Smiles and Expensive Watches) and David Nix (via e-mail) for suggesting these three topics! I spend 10 minutes on each one, roughly. 1-10: Underground London has the oldest underground train system in the world, but how does it compare to modern Chinese cities such as Shenzhen?
