David B,
Hu's latest is later than Kirsten Seaver's book and the rest of the so
called latest. May 2004 you know wasn't long ago. There has only been
positive facts relised after May this year - but of course since it was
presented after all the other mentioned events YOU have missed it. More
about that later.

While I can't say anything about your book, I can and will say a lot about
Kirsten Seaver's. She is a good writer, but a bad scholar when it comes to
do her background checks. As usual I have found more faults than correct
conclusions in her works. Circlearguments are common,
but that's not the worst. The acrebi in the book is so bad that beside her
former works I only found one scholar an Archaeologist here in Sweden who's
argumentations, assumptions, lack of following up premisses for theories and
assumptions presented etc are worse.

I am not the only one to have arrived to that conclusion re. Kirsten Seaver.
Might be that I am one of the few who is in a position to say what I feel.
As for your book I will return when I read it.
