I dont' understand all this Martial Hubbub about lineage and who's style is more real than another's...the proof should be in the dojo.

It's not about Real. It's about Facts. If someone says, "We will teach you practical jujutsu!" then the proof is in the dojo. If someone says, "We will teach you an ancient Ainu form of martial arts!" then the proof is not in the dojo. It's in the facts that back up that claim. If there are none, then it's disingenuous at best, and fraud at worst. If the style is personally worth being lied to, then great. Myself, no matter how good I may find the art, I could never stay with an instructor who lied to me to that degree.
