I don't even know GT's identity, but I also feel he's a class act. My friend that left shaolin-do credits him with stopping the death (well...physical injury anyway) threats and rants from Texas he was getting. GT entered into our situation in a good faith effort to help out, it didn't work out but it's good to know SD has folks like him willing to work for the good of the art.
I met lots of good people in SD...part of the reason I keep an eye on what's going on I suppose.
