Creation of a website for the controversy regarding Gavin Menzies's book

Dear H-Asia Listers,

As has probably been apparent to some on the list, a number of persons around the globe have become a trifle upset with the fabrications of Mr. Gavin Menzies, his publishers and his co-conspirators. Rather than rebutting each claim repeatedly and diversely, it has been decided to create a website where rebuttals and criticisms can be mounted alongside the original claims. Persons interested in the issues can then access these at will.

The new website can be found at:
***http://www.1421exposed.com
***http://www.1421exposed.tv

I urge anyone who has applied their scholarship to the 1421 issue, the associated Liu Gang fake 1418/1763 map or the upcoming Island of Seven Cities volume to share their findings on the website.

If anyone has any queries on the site or aspects of it, please do let me know.

Best wishes,
