Of course I'm still practicing judo, no longer competing - just teaching,
coaching and refereeing.
Thanks for thinking of me. I never left, just quiet.

There was no misunderstanding, Angel. You were very clear. What I found to
be painful was your lack of empathy for your friend going through a tough
time. In the midst of a very dark hour, I found that story about Jeremy
Glick, the collegiate judo champion who gave his life fighting terrorists to
save others. Unfortunately, he couldn't fly that doomed plane, but he did
have fighting skills and COJONES to save others. You see, after talking on
the airplane phone with his wife, he knew what their intentions were. I was
SO PROUD to come share that story on this newsgroup and you just threw it
back in my face - questioning his heroics and that of his fellow passengers
that fought back. You claimed it was merely an attempt to sell newspapers.
How callous. I'd still like to know what makes a hero in YOUR book?
Mike
