Regarding the use of Tze, versus Tse.. Mao's name was often incorrectly transliterated into English as "Zedong". So if someone starts calling him "Tse-Tung", many English readers may be confused and perceive that someone else is being referred to. The same goes with Sun Tzu.. There are various English spellings of his name.. And none of them that I've been able to find, refer to Tze.. Maybe Tse.. or Si, or Wu.. But not Tze: Sun Wu (simplified Chinese: ??; traditional Chinese: ??; pinyin: Sun Wu), style name Changqing (??), better known as Sun Tzu or Sunzi[1] (simplified Chinese: ??; traditional Chinese: ??; pinyin: Sunzi; pronounced [sw?´n ts?`]), was an ancient Chinese military general, strategist and philosopher who is traditionally believed and most likely to have authored The Art of War, en.wikipedia.org Just because you claim folks mostly know sun Tze as sun tzu does not mean I have to defer to such most. No... you don't HAVE TO to do anything.. including breathing.. No one forces you to post.. But again, if you DESIRE to have your thoughts understood, then you'll rachet down your obvious arrogance and write in a manner that your target audience can easily understand. But then again, I guess you could see if SI will support Chinese characters... then you can just post in your native language and truly show us how arrogant you truly are. Hawk
