You could learn something from him, dude. _________________________ "In case you ever wondered what it's like to be knocked out, it's like waking up from a nightmare only to discover it wasn't a dream." -Forrest Griffin

Of course it makes sense. But I won't go into the reason as I know you know them.

von1 Member Registered: 02/04/08 Posts: 260	Flynch It sounds like you have the inside dope but want to keep it to your self. This forum is about conversing why not share with the rest of us this secret knowledge. This is what its all about, putting things out there and having friendly debate it will just not be as one sided as it used to be. No disrespect intended just trying to get you to open up more with your reply to ITFUNITY

I agree that often things in debates that go back & forth, do get hard to follow at time. I respectfully suggest that you keep it short, with resepct to what is confusing you or making you "dizzy". I will try my best to respond & address that specific item, if I can. I will remain available to address as many areas as you want & I can, but doing them 1 at a time, will make it easier to follow. Thanks

No disrespect intended just trying to get you to open up more with your reply to ITFUNITY Von1, I do not think Mr. Flynch is trying to keep a secret, but rather the explanation is very controversal & has been previously thought to be ITF & Gen Choi propaganda. However, recent & ongoing independent research is starting to show there is more truth than propaganda to that side of the story. It all revolves around politics, real Korean govt politics, NK & SK politics, internal politics, politics from 1 group to another that don't like each other. It is & continues to be a turn off for many MAists, but it is something that both of us has posted about at great length.
