Well, Gary B, leave it to you in your deluded state of age induced senility to bring up a subject that has been hashed, rehashed, and made into soup yet again....
Is it because you've been dismissed by all the American Kenpo forums because your rants make little to no sense and you've gotten your feelings hurt? The articles that you keep referring to in a feeble attempt at discrediting the memory of SGM Parker, Mills Crenshaw, and anyone else that practices Ed Parker's American Kenpo have been brought up so many times it's amazing you are still touting them as gospel.
Ed Parker is directly responsible for Kenpo being here in the US. Period. The Tracy's trained UNDER SGM Ed Parker, Period. The one thing that can't be disputed is that EPAK practitioners are just as passionate and just as lethal as any kenpo practitioners, including Tracy kenpo folks.
The where, when, how, and whom questions of the forms, as we call them in American Kenpo, have little relevance when you are staring down the barrell of a pistol or facing the glint of a piece of steel at kill-shot range.
You can either use the kenpo you have learned to defend yourself or you can't. Or, in Bgile's case, you spend your dwindling energy on trying to discredit others so as to lend creedance to your own insignifigant ramblings.
