Good site. I found some of the pages interesting. It might be better if you placed the add comments area at the end of the guestbook instead of the beginning. More people might take the time to look and respond then. (you asked for comments!) I liked the photos, more would be fun.

Rod, I just reread your bio on the website. Thank you for your succinct summary of our school, and your purpose in relation to it. It was very articulate (coming from you, I'm not surprised) in explaining what I believe our school represents. Also, it refreshes my memory of my experience in the school. I was 13 to 19 when I was strongly involved in the school. I was wearing the white, green, and perhaps brown belts when sensei's Steve and Dan, and probably others, traveled to Riverside to sit on the grading council. I fought Shihan Dan Lane when he was a 4th degree (maybe 5th), and was very impressed. He had such incredible accuracy and speed and control in his kumite that I recognized his beyond-average "mastery" of karate. I recently came across my "Mas Oyama School of Karate" promotion/membership card. Please put a hotlink to your bio in both my bio and especially my dojo page. Also, it was not user friendly to have the comments page at the bottom, but not all the way to the bottom to start typing on. Just lower it to the very bottom of visibility of the page, and/or add one to the top. I can't press return for a new line in this box like I could an email. Please tell our outstanding web master, sensei Sean, and ask him if these things could be improved.

Sensei Jemmott, Thank you for your visit to our site. We took a look at your site as well. Very nice. Sensei Rod seems to remember meeting you in past years (he is getting old and could be wrong, but retired cops DO remember some of those things!) We wish we had found a message area to post to on your site. We have long been friends of Shotokan Karate and it's Riverside Karateka. Our best wishes and good health and training to you all.........

Thank you very much for your response. My team is working frantically to get our site together and rolling. I'm bad with names, but not faces, so When I meet Sensei Rod again I'll put it together. I do know some of your older guys, Sensei Kimball, The Bech brothers on a personal basis and met with Sensei Steve once before having lunch. I would like to visit one of you dojos during one of your sessions or maybe go to one of your get together to reacquaint and to meet new people as well. My direct email is ajemm9100@aol.com or you're welcome to place it on your site again. I'll be visiting from time to time. Thanks again. Armando Jemmott

Hello my friends! (I stole the opening from Tamara. It sounded great when I read it.) Sean, Rod and everyone else who has worked on this site, it's very impressive! The comments are wonderful to read as are the photos to see. They have brought back many, many fond memories. It underscores how negligent I've been in keeping in touch with such good people. I hope the holidays find you all healthy, happy and with a firm unshaking spirit. Craig MacD. craigmac@sbcglobal.net

Hi; my name is Dana Bennett. I have been a student of Dan Laynes since 1977. I received my Shodan from Steve Senne in 1982 and I currently hold the rank of Yodan in the School of the Cat. I am still actively training and living in Northern California (Mt. Shasta area). We have a small group training here. I live about 3 and 1/2 hours from Arcata where I believe you have a school. I would be very interested in getting together and training with anyone in the neighborhood. I tried e-mailing Nick Bertell but I don't believe I was successful. I also attempted calling but the phone number on your web site has been disconnected. P.S. I found your site by accident and have enjoyed reading about some people that I have not seen in many years.
