Subject: Hello

Hi, David Chiou:
  I read your WWW homepages for Buddhism. They are great! Although I 
don't have Big5 to view characters, I will get it later.
  I used to be a member of Chen-Shee association of NTU 10 years ago. 
There were hundreds of sutras. It's difficult to search for a special 
topics from so many books. Now I guess that computers can help buddhists to 
find their answers quicker than before.
  Buddhism is flourishing in the U.S., especially in California. Did you 
check their libraries? Now Americans have Hinayana(Thai, Sri Lanka), 
Mahayana(Chinese, Japanese, Korea, Vietnamese), Vajrayana(Tibetan, 
Japanese), and some New-Age teachings(crystal power, dream travel, 
brainwaves). I am amazed that Americans are really good to absorb new 
cultures. Talk to you later.
