Zak,'
Please get you qoutes straight.
I am the one who said that if you learn the ancient weapons, that it does apply to modern society.
Thaiboeren is the one who made the long answer..that you put my name on.
Peace,

Zak,
History shows..that the only ons who carried just a sword..was usually a roman officer.
Most all foot soilders carried both long weapons..and swords.
Anyway, I hope that answers your question..like I said..I am only puttin the history out here for people to read.
I do wonder though..why you would assume that I would not politely answer you....don't you know what they say about the word assume? Don't make judgements based an what you think you know...and don't judge me without knowing me. Make sure you have all the facts first..and then if you have a problem..tell me abouot it.
Peace,
Tae

Uh...yeah, it's not a good situation - the Liberals are finally thinking about stepping-in to help - gee, how nice of them don't ya think? A little late for some businesses that have already gone under, not to mention senior citizens who have literally been trapped at home for this entire strike. For me it's not so bad cause I can drive to work or wherever...What I don't get though, is how transit officials and our mayor can be so damned surprised that riots and demonstrations are starting to flare up...So...yeah, I'm quite pi$$ed at the whole situation - it's gone on long enough - and there's STILL no talks planned!!!!!!!!!! Do the words BINDING ARBITRATION mean anything to you???? Hehe...well, enough ranting for now - I'll save it for the commute home...

GUNN(Long Rod)
The Gunn(long rod), can be traced to at least the period of Huang Di[2690-2590 B.C.]. It is one of the most convient and easily used weapons because long pieces of wood can be found anywhere, both on the road, and at home.
The gunn us generally nade of hard wood(e.g. birch or oak), it was oftened imersed in oil to increase strength and resilience. Occasionally, long rods were made of brass or iron and were either solid or hollow. One made a heavy and powerful weapon, while the other provided the user with lightness and speed. The circumference of the long rod was such thatthe thumb and first finger of its carrier just touched around it. There are three kinds of long rods.
The first and most common consists of a straight piece of rod.
The second called a water-fire rod, has metal covering both ends of the rod, but miether end is sharp.
The third, called spear rod, has one tapered end that can be used for piercing.
Brushing, sweeping, striking, and thrusting upwards through the opponents crotch are common techniques used with the Gunn. sliding the rod through one hand to utilize either end brings the long rod alive.
More later.
