In addition to your name, you may want to sell us with why we should go out of our way to do this for you. What have you tried already? Why are you looking for this info? What is your background? Make us interested!

WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM???

I SEE PEOPLE WITH NICKNAMES AND IF YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH IT THEN DONT LOOK OK PAL

IM DOING A REPORT ON THE 1940'S AND I WANT TO DO IT ON KENDO

GEE YOU PEOPLE ARE A HOLES!!!!!!

[chrismoses]

My, I certainly feel inclined to help you out.

As Charles pointed out, it is a REQUIREMENT on this board to sign your actual name. We don't hide behind the anonymity afforded by the internet on this BB. you are welcome to use whatever logon name you like so long as you are willing to sign your actual name. Don't like the rule? Too bad. In the meantime, if you'd like our help, you'll need to adjust your attitude.

[Neil Yamamoto]

Gee, you want links instead of looking things up yourself? Your nickname is really appropriate then.

See, if you had worded your post politely and signed your name, I could point you in the direction of not only interviews with old time kendo sensei, but information on pre WWII kendo as well.

I could even provide the FBI report on Japanese martial arts on the west coast done in the late 1930's.

But since I'm an A-HOLE, I guess I'll just ignore your request.

Apathetically yours,

[Earl Hartman]

Hmmm....

Let's see, I think I'll pop in to a new BB, not tell anybody who I am, ask everybody a really big favor, and then go bats**t and flip everybody off when they politely ask me to follow the rules.

Yeah, that sounds like a good way to get what I want.

A-holes flame. A clear blue flame, if you have a lighter, and a car full of guys on their way home from Tijuana. I thought everyone knew that.

As for kendo, well, it's astonishing what turns up by typing "kendo 1940" into Google, to include most of what I posted in response to the same question down in Research Methods.
