cat eyesa note from bingfeng: this post was and probably will be linked by other sites, so i want to add a few points. first, the old lady is supposed to be a beggar, that might be the reason why others didn't offer a seat to her because she was moving along the cart to beg; second, even so, in a country that used to give elders a lot of respect, young people should give some care for this old lady since she seemd not stand quite stable in the fast moving metro, i feel shameful for these young guys; thrid, this is not representative of the younger generations in shanghai or china, i know a lot of them act in the opposite ways.
