Fair enough.
Why don't you put your mouth where your money is and show us a video of you showing some peng in an uncooperative setting? That seems to be what you and the troll are asking for.
Actually, I wasn't asking for anything, least of all a video demonstrating peng being used. Most won't agree on what is, or isn't, being shown and whether or not it is "peng". Peng is something you feel, not something someone demonstrates on a video.
I think Steve has put up some very nice videos despite extensive and repeated major surgeries that left him unable to walk for extended periods.
I agree, even more so given his surgeries.
I have also enjoyed your videos, but haven't seen you doing anything that the "famed masters of olde" did.
I'm not a master, famed, or of olde. My videos are aimed at specific aspects of the basics for beginners. In those videos, I avoid like the plague the use of most of the traditional jargon, including the term "peng".
At any rate, I find your initiation of discussion with Steve to be far less condescending than the one I responded to.
I try not to be condescending in my interaction with others. Sometimes I'm successful.
Finally, I don't believe in lin kong jin.
Me either. However, others have the right to believe in it if they want to without my insulting them. I've never considered my self particularly tolerant of contrary view points, but, these days, compared to the shit going on in the world, I guess I am.
