I'm a geezer, and fear change. However, here are a couple of thoughts:<br>

I've done judo since the 70's (no, really, since the 70s). While I don't think it's a great name for J-turtle, over the past year ROS *has* thrown me to the mat, sat on me, and forced me to submit more than once, so maybe it *is* a viable option.<br>
