On the Tohei quote of it only taking 6 months to learn aikido....
So which do you think it is?
I think Tohei was the kind of guy that showed some of the characteristics I have been describing and who did master it himself in a short period of time.

At some point its all political, especially if you cant just go for it 'live' in a ring to prove it. [It would take a bunch of mature people who understand what it was he is doing to make a call... but even then it would be difficult unless he got in a ring. - and as I pointed out, thats only good for so many years.]

But yes, overall, I believe he got it...
