Hello,
John (drluengjohn) I took your question based on some of your previous assertions about the HFY and TWC connection. We all know discussions about this in the past have had interesting undertones, and I assumed the same thing may be present in this disussion as well, especially with people not associated with HFY talking about what it does or does not have.
I fail to see why people can't accept that HFY and TWC can have different interpretations, even if they once had a common ancestor and share common core forms.
This is a great way to address this, and I agree with you wholeheartedly. IMO WC VT Weng Chun etc all come from the same source if you go back far enough. Unfortunately much of it was undocumented, so IMO all we can do is share our oral histories and give each other room to live.
