As shown on China Central Television (http://www.cctv.com), an experienced lock maker can construct an equivalent key merely after a glance at your key. He was appreciated as one of the Ten Model Workers of the Year.
I can confirm this. In addition, if you put the last two characters together (kele), it literally means "joyful", and pronounces like "Cola".
"Bite the Wax Tadpole" is irrelevent. "Keko-kele" does not mean that, not even part of that.
Chinese is like Perl, which is highly context-sensitive. Most characters mean complete different things in different context. So there are characters that work just like sigils in order to disambiguous them. And people have to use delimiters carefully.
It is pretty normal in China to do short-term "face-project" like this.
Not only Beijing city does this, schools/universities/cooleges in China all seems used to doing such nasty jobs. In late 2007 when some "leaders" come to "inspect" in the universities, you'll see universities ordering all their students be in classroom from 8:00 to 22:00, just to show the "leaders" that their students are "hard-working". Luckily, due to lack (and the impossibility) of reinforcement to such order, it does not cause too much catastrophic result.
By the way, I have been living in Beijing for more than 10 years, and have been quite healthy. I am not sure whether American athletes will suffer breathing problems.
