评级风波的余波

                        ·方舟子·

     刚到WWW Virtual Libary去看了一下，发现“新语丝”又变成了四
星级网站，并有下面的说明（这个说明也并不准确。比如说我做了大部分
输入和校对，就是言过其实了。新语丝文库的大部分收藏也还没有经过细
心的校对－－确切地说，应该是经典部分的收藏）：

     Xin yusi新语丝 (New Threads) (New Threads Chinese Cultural
Society, USA) 
     (http://www.xys.org/). 
     Language: Chinese (GB); Homepage in English. 
     Description: A very rich database containing a lot of 
classical and modern texts (prose and poetry). Although the
main audience aimed at is the general public and the texts are not
intended for scholarly use, most of them seem to be carefully
proofread, including a reference to the edition the text is 
transcribed from. The New Threads Chinese Cultural Society is a
non-profit organization, currently headed by Fang Shi-min 方是民(
aka Fang Zhouzi 方舟子), a biochemist (with a PH.D. from Michigan 
Univ.) and poet (with publications in China, Taiwan
and the US), who has done much of the input and proofreading. Site
