Yeah it was mentioned, but I'm afraid the presence of goods manufactured 
in 
China is nearly ubiquitous now.  I'd almost challenge you to see if you 
can 
go through any room of your house and not find one or more things that are 
manufactured in China.

Doesn't necessarily make it any better to buy such products but I think 
its 
hard to avoid them these days (unless you simply refuse to buy anything 
that's got a low price tag and even then... I mean Nike shoes aren't 
exactly 
cheap)
