references Henan and Hakka

["S. L . Lee" <sllee@asiawind.com>]

Dear Dylan,

I just noticed in your references, there is no Chinese citation. Do you have
access to a good library with Chinese collections? While I try not to play
down on non-Chinese authors/scholars, as Joseph Needham wrote the best
encyclopedia on Chinese science and technology better than any Chinese did,
I would also like to see some references from Chinese literature.

About Zhongzhou and Henan, please see the following websites:

interesting)

(I may not agree with all the comments in these sites, they just serve to
provide the background for Henan and Hakka.)

If you like music, may I recommend to you an erhu solo ªe«n¤p¦± (little
melody from Henan). You can tell the tune is almost like written with the
tones in Hakka dialect. It is one of my favorite pieces.
