I'm not seeing too much confidence in the Counsellor's martial arts vs. NDD.

It appears that his kung fu is weak here, and his Krav Maga too (or whatever it is called).

Hopefully, when you "go medieval" on my Junior Medic, he will leave enough of you to patch up when he is done with you.

Zeroalpha,

I hadn't seen that second article, so cheers.

I love how people think NZ is a soft touch.

I'm seeing things, I could have sworn your post said "Always possible to fix up the pieces."

What makes you think there would be any pieces to fix?

You've come a long way for a corporate whore from California RL. LOL. I remember when you couldn't post your name at SOCNET without getting in trouble - and now you have "gear". I would venture to say you are probably unique in your field and AO. And that's a good thing.
