[Rhodes22-list] Political - for Brad's Eyes - notrelatedtosailing!

Brad,

I was going to reply to your ss points but got distracted by something 
closer to both our homes:

A Cindy Chen from a company that calls itself:
Beijing SYHC science and development company
at Room 313 Agriculture Building
Xicheng District, Beijing

sent me an e-mail expressing interest in doing business with us

We have no money to invest but are very interested in franchising the 
building of the boats and suggested our franchise idea to Cindy.  She just 
now called me and while she speaks English better than I do, I had 
difficulty in hearing and understanding her and she said she would try 
e-mail.

Is there any way I can tell if she represents a company of substance or is 
just a Chinese Nigeria type outfit, before I take too much time with this 
project since the address "Room number 313" gives me some reason for pause.
