just a not.
you have a spot for Shaolin KeNpo -which would be GM Castro's kenpo.
but you do not have a spot for Shaolin KeMpo - which would be people from villari's on down.

Well....the member that posted this originally did so in 2003.

Perhaps its time for a new poll? ;)

It might be best to just vote "other" :) Doing another vote would take longer to gather all the tallies from 2003.

Interestingly enough (you probably know this):

Linguistically speaking you can only "write" those names as to appear different English, due to the Chinese/Japanese characters being absolutely identical (see below). So really that issue has major bumps to begin with. Plus, the Japanese pronounce "Shaolin" as "Shorinji". Maybe it is best just to leave it, but putting a name of the person who founded it such as "Castro's Shaolin Kenpo" would be prudent as there is no doubt as to who and what.
