    Because it's a Kung Fu forum and we like to think in terms of 17th century illiterates at times for effect and atmosphere.

    so 10,000, to a peasant in those days was literally almost beyond comprehension.
    most martial artists were illiterate, and many of us harken back to those days when things were simple, fish were jumping, cotton was high, daddy was rich and momma was so good looking.

    Kung Fu is good for you.

    Not sure if anyone mentioned using the wrist roller thing. If so those are good on forearms.

    You bring new meaning to the name "Doc Oc"...

    except the "oc" ain't octopus if you get my inference...
    Kung Fu is good for you.

    Who's keeping track? lol. Also it would, add some pictures for example of course. That and I've never heard of a fist strengthening book before, so you might gave a pretty original idea.

    profit is subjective... what is important is that information has been shared, who takes credit is obsolete... throw the pebble, watch the ripples.

    I saw this grubby kid who was about to buy some icecream, and told him he had the bone structure of a kung fu genius, then I sold him the manual for 10 dollars.
