I've decided to put down a list of " knowledgeable members in CHF", which the staff feels have good knowledge on the range of intellectual topics discussed in CHF (such as chinese history, ancient chinese military, chinese culture, chinese language, asian history etc. ) This list is not meant to divide beginners from the experts or put off beginners. The members listed here are not all experts, but perhaps have at least intermediate level on certain knowledge on chinese studies or asian history etc. Some are CHF Grand Historians while some are not.

The list will enable you to get to know some members who might have specialised knowledge on a certain intellectual field of studies that you might want to consult if you have problems or questions. You might encounter them while discussing in a certain forum in CHF.

If you have any recommendation, please let the staff know and we will update this list. The list is categorized into different field of studies.

General Z.y.,

CARDINAL009 - Focusing Sun Tzu Strategy or other Chinese Art of War
A concise description would be: [a pragmatic understanding of ancient Chinese strategy classics.]

F/ awhile, was just known f/ writing C/C++ code in embedded systems.
while walking in a figure 8 pattern.

Nice 2 see this list of scholars. Knowing who to ask f/ guidance..

Thanks f/ considering me as a knowledgeable member.

If this Cardinal can possess the structural engn. knowledge base and experience like L/JM, will be on the way to build some ["cool"] hardware

As a strategic thinker, find the learning of Chinese history a good option to learn ["strategic thinking"].

I've added DuncanHead and Anthrophobia to the Art of War list, and Wangkon936 to the Asian History list.

Hmm c'mon GZ I'm not that unactive

orchid dreams 遣香洞主 is good in Chinese poetry. I like to read her poems.
