Ah yes, all our Independent posters are standing in line to demonstrate their impartiality.
"...Angle is a debate of substance."
Orion, I usually respect your posts, but you must be kidding me here.
Condenscending comments usually do not show respect, so I have not seen much of it. It matters not to me though, as I call them as I see them.

I understand a little about Japanese culture and the custom of bowing.
Yeah the internet is a good place to learn, but 12 years of doing it 5 out of seven days a week, in an environment where it really matters, tends to give a different perspective.
quote:
I also understand that the Japanese are not the ones complaining in this farce.
You need to reread things, as you often do, because I was not complaining. I said, and stand by that the angle, and other nuances of a bow are substantive in a discussion. Whether the bow was done or not is pretty much just Obama bashing (did you miss that post?).
Then again Master Chen instructed me in very acute ways, for the first several months of me learning to bow, so that may make me a little less objective.
