Just saw Tim Ferriss @tferriss in this Chinese magazine

Just saw Tim Ferriss @tferriss in this Chinese magazine with lots of quotes from his very cool book, the 4 hour workweek - My guess is, it was unauthorized. Just for fun, I will ask him this question through Twitter and let you know what he says.  ...by the way, do you think Michael Phelps gave permission for his photo to be used on the cover?
