The hood mentality is crippling disease, that attacks your nervous system. It makes you nervous of the system. Gangsters and hood rats are especially susceptible to this growth stunting mentality. The hood is where I'm from, but it's not what I am. The hood is where I'm from, but it's not what I am. --Keith David--Ice Cube
All I got is genes and chromosomes
Consider me Black to the bone

Well, it's good that I didn't do that, then, and that I'm not on any bandwagon.
Since you appear to know English to at least a moderate extent, I'll take it that your misunderstanding and distortion is intentional.
One of us is weighing evidence; the other is plugging his ears and stamping his feet. And pretty much anyone reading the thread can tell which is which.

My argument doesn't depend on no one using Ju Jitsu as a spelling for BJJ. I still would suggest that anyone honestly asking herself, absent any other indication, if a website listing MAs taught at a school says simply "Ju Jitsu," is it more likely that it refers to BJJ or JJJ, there is an obvious answer.
However, this point isn't essential. Contrary to Der Auslander's distortion, my argument never rested "just" on the spelling point. That was an intentional misunderstanding on his part.
As I pointed out, Rice lists his qualification for teaching JJ: a BB earned under "Hanshi Carl D. Wilcox," who was a JJJ master, not a BJJ master. Wilcox was an official with the USJJF and a member of the Board of Directors of the USJF. Even if we ignore the absence of "Brazilian" and imagine that it is just as common in this country to mean BJJ by "Ju Jitsu" as JJJ when offering a list of MAs offered, there is clear evidence on the site, in the discipline cited as his JJ training, that Rice is talking about teaching JJJ and none whatever that he is talking about teaching BJJ. -
