For all the words in my last blog entry, the one thing I did not touch upon is whether what happened with Clint George Sensei invalidates his teachings.  This blog post helps answer that question.  I particularly like this part:

When this fellow taught or teaches Aikido, he may have been / may be perfect in that moment, regardless of any other circumstance. That he may have been imperfect at another time does not discredit what was transmitted when he was in a better state. Finally, almost every lesson we learn comes to us from people whom we may judge to be flawed, but that does not negate the value of the lesson to us. After all, though a teacher may be skillful in helping us to understand, in the end it is not that we are taught; rather, it is that we learn.

Very well written.
