Slippery Slope

Wikipedia is quite the time vampire.

Case in point, I went to the article for Parkour.

I somehow wound up looking up jujutsu and it was all over.

Next thing I know, I'm hip deep in international martial arts articles:

* baritsu
* dambe
* hapkido (I'm told this style is now properly called "yongmudo")
* krav maga
* kurash (I only barely know where Uzbekistan is...)
* ninjutsu (HAH!)
* okichitaw
* savate
* schwingen
* vovinam

And that's just a smattering.

Good lord.

That's an awful lot of formalized ways of hurting people.
