Michael, the biggest problem that I see here, is that you're putting too much faith into the shit that you read on the internet.

shaolin.com has been discussed on this site before, many, many times. From what I've seen over the past year, it has demonstrated nothing but kempo stances, and it has portrayed itself primarily as a commercial site, in my opinion. Also, in my opinion, it has little to do with real shaolin.

And Maestro, yes, you are correct. The History Channel rocks, and, quite surprisingly, it is being shown in China now, but with Chinese dubbing.

Thanks for all the links, Dave. They are proving to be most helpful. I'll read these sights and then when I'm done, I'll probably have a few new questions. Thanks again.
