I'm following protocol and introducing myself to the Aikiweb community. Maybe reintroducing is a better world since I remember AikiWeb when it was a little tiny web site with great aspirations and it's good to see what it's become.
I've been around the on-line Aikido community since it's early pre-web days, and it's amusing to see that some of the same discussions are still going on
I've been practicing Aikido for a little while longer than that and look forward to interesting discussions with the many people that are part of this community.
