    I've added a translation of Lao Tzu to the books section of my files. This is a translation by Lin Yutang. I don't know its providence, but it seems to me to be the most reliable one that I was able to find in the torrents. (I compared it to versions of Gia Fu Feng and Jane English, Bart, James Legge and a couple of others from the same torrent and the version by Ursula Le Guin which I have in Kindle.) The one that I had in my teenage years was just the Penguin edition, which I liked a lot - I still remember some of the verses by heart.

      Well, thanks to you I just read the article on him in Wikipedia. Fascinating - an all around renaissance man!
