Responding to a comment about it being difficult to hit yourself when
fighting unarmed:

Yes, true, but as someone who spent several months on crutches this year
(sprained knee, torn ligaments & cartilege, water on the knee), from Tae
Kwon Do, I would say it's VERY easy to `fumble' practising the martial arts.
It seems to me (although I'm not an authority) that the more `hard' or
`external' the school, the more likely you are to do something like this.

						Best,
