hmmm...I was going to say the same thing

If you think that he stumbled on something - then show where that is differentiated in his writings and his actions instead of just stating that it "might" be so.

If he has a "remarkably unique new martial art" - then show us how and why that is so, instead of just saying that other people simply can't see out of the well. It's a cute story, but it really doesn't move the conversation anywhere.

But before you do that - you might go back and check out the last ten years of threads where we've discussed this kind of thing before.

Best,

Chris
