Haha Lung's writing style is the same as Hunter's.

I didn't know Ninjas were into the "glory hole" thing. I guess it makes sense really. A good ninja shouldn't reveal his true identity for ANY reason.

We don't know. Almost certainly younger than the 70 he claims.

Read the recent Ashida Kim threads; they concern this very issue.

so christopher hunter = ashida kim = dr. haha lung = dirk skinner?
is it possible "jay sensei" is yet another pseudonym for this person?

has anyone seen the "dirk skinner" book?
sounds like it's loaded with a lot of "monkey steals the peach" kind of stuff.

They Usually try to Mask their Bullsh*t with "liberal politics".... somehow I doubt the real Ninjas were tree huggers. They were assassins (sp?).

I think you mean "New Age" rather than "liberal". I don't think that very many MAists will lecture you about the welfare state, although they might want to lecture you about harmony with the universe.

HAHA LUNG = Ashida Kim = Chris Hunter.

In SHADOWHAND he couldn't even spell TAISABAKI right and **** up other things as well.

All I know so far about "haha lung" is that he, "Dirk Skinner" and "Ralf Dean Omar" is the same guy (according to a bunch of copyright info) ****, maybe he even is the co-author "Christopher B. Prowant" as well (also listed as a pseudonym, couldn't find anything else on that name)

At http://www.usa-people-search.com/ I found:

Subject: OMAR, RALF, Age: 52

1 unique address in MANSFIELD, OH

I had intended to try the other names as well but the site seems to be down right now.

As far as Ashida = Lung goes

He is not a alias of Ashida. Lung had some of his books published by Paladin Press in the 2000's. Ashida tried to sue Paladin Press in 1998 and added them to his "**** list" shortly after.

I looked into the copyrights of Haha Lung. He is a pseudonym but it doesn't say what his real name is. I have some guesses:

1. He is Christopher B. Prowant, but he added Lung to seem more credible. A Asian author would know lots of stuff about ninjas; just like all Asians do. I still don't know if Prowant is a pseudo also.

2. He is Ralf Dean Omar. Ralf did the illustrations for one of Lung's books. Ralf is also a ninja author writing under the name "Dirk Skinner".

3. He is many different authors. The claimant for one of his books is Loompanics. They write alot of weird books using pseudonyms. It seems they sometimes hire a freelance author to write their books. Maybe that is why no real name is given, because there are too many to list.

I agree with Don, Dr. Haha Lung is still published by Paladin but Radford Davis/AK and Peder Lund had a major parting of the ways in the early 1990s when Radford accused Lund of stealing royalties and somehow the rights to AK's books got moved over to Kensington Press. Given how much Lund and Davis loathe each other it seems impossible that they still would be doing business together.
