I like this article. I usually just tell people that aikido is a specific flavor of jiu-jitsu, with a bit more emphasis on the peace and love side of things. The more I study with teachers from DR-derived schools the less "special snowflake" aikido seems to be. That's not a bad thing for me or for aikido, IMHO.
