Fellas,
Relax....you guys are losing cool points saying stuff like this. I'm sure Mr. C, if he knows about it, will give a detailed response worthy of the topic.
Without coming off too much like Billy , Kirk, I'd say don't worry too much about all the fancy bells and whistles that are out there. Proper basics, consistent training & practice are gonna get you where you want to be in the system.

Mr. Parker would turn the wheel, say to... "straight punch". On the other side of the wheel would be the list of defenses for a straight punch. It was like this for all of the different attacks, basically it was the system in a nutshell. Mr. Planas said Mr. Parker kept it in his desk draw at the Pasadena studio and used it during the Black Belt classes. Then one day it just disappeared, know one knows where or why it went, but they never saw it again...
Some think he scrapped it for the Web of Knowledge, but know one is definite about its disappearance.

Doug's interest (cdhall) was from a historical perspective, he wants to know everything that ever happened in Kenpo in the early days to store away in his brain and his person notes which are probably massive (that's how he is) plus he's a 3rd Brown (and started his training in Kenpo before either of us) and has been a Texas compadre of mine for many years so I regularly harrass him has well.
