Well done, Zen! Another triumph! A couple of minor comments:
1. In the first paragraph, I wonder if it is worth mentioning the tarot, to place the I Ching (as an oracle) in context?
2. I have been told that the I Ching is "not just an oracle, but also a philosophy", but I haven't been able to find any info on this with a web search. Does anyone know any more?

Alluding to other oracular or divinitory devices such as Tarot cards, or a Ouji board may make things a lil' clearer. Thanks.
As the I Ching as a philosophy I don't know any websites that talk about this. But there is a massive page of I Ching bookmarks on the web. If you have Micro$oft exploder, you can type the word "[URL information removed by moderator]" in the address bar and hit alt-Enter and that should take you to it. If you have some other browser just put triple-w-dot in front of the above mentioned word, and a dot-com after it.(HA HA directions to a website, but no URL take that, Moderator! (What is the thinking about not allowing URL's in messages again?))
There are plenty of books about the philosophy of the I Ching though, check out your local library. The best book about the I Ching though is the I Ching itself.

Seems like the moderator (to the B ark with them all!) got you anyway, Zen, but thanks for the thought!

I can't believe they censored the single word "zhouyi". What an anal censor! So its now 'illegal' to describe an URL. Weird. I think I will have to have a Guide Entry with links I wanna mention in forums.
