TSKSR
Hello Kongoshin, some questions came into my mind when reading your talk page message and your newest blog post (If I'm correct in my assumption that the blog I found during one of my many Google searches for TSKSR related material is yours; I understand perfectly if you wish to remain anonymous in Wikipedia). In summary, I'd be interested in exchanging information about recent (and also old) TSKSR history. Feel free to contact me if I can be of assistance. My current collection of information is woefully inadequate and incomplete however, especially with the task of tracing lineages and personal history of independent Katori teachers. Cordially, jni 08:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Has the 1928 film showing Hayashi-sensei published before or was that shown to you from someone's private collection? I have never heard of any surviving clips or even that many photographs of Otake's teacher before.
 * 2) Do you have any other material about Hayashi Yazaemon that the one page biography in Deity and the Sword vol. 2 you no doubt are already familiar with?
 * 3) What about Noda-sensei, a rumored senior-to-Otake sensei that run his own dojo at some point of time (40s?, 50s?)?

TSKSR and history
I've answered you privately for now. Also, I've published some pictures from the film in my blog: http://mylifeinbudo.blogspot.com/2006/07/studying-technical-history-of-katori.html
