"Hello I have witnessed a burial [in April 2005, in Litang, Eastern Tibet - ed.] and even got permission to take pictures and join the family. Have a look here [at the URL below]. Will be more than happy if you add this link to your article [i.e. Dr Mondo Secter's 1999 field note in www.ciolek.com/WWWVLPages/TibPages/tib-burial.html - ed.] [...] Will be also happy to share some more photos and movie clips I have which are harder to watch, if needed. thanks, Rotem."
