[edit] Validity?

Apart from one newspaper article citing Needham, I've been unable to find any other references to this mathematician apart from websites citing this one, or again Needham. Can we open the scope of this a little further and get more citations in here as to such simplistic things as, his existance for one, birth place, life, et cetera. Jachin 20:41, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
