bungbukuen, I must compliment you on your persistance. If nothing else, you've managed to rally some different Songshan Shaolin cousins here and it's nice to see everyone.

By strange coincidence, I saw Xinghao yesterday - it was a complete surprise. In fact, I saw all the Houston monks except for Deshan, but for anyone who knows the Houston Shaolin scene, that shouldn't be surprising. Anyway, it was great to see all of them, even if it was just for a fleeting moment. I'll report it all on the Shaolin Shows near SF as soon as I get a free moment.
