I can't turn this up, or even remember who wrote it.
It was sort of written like a story about a guy learning martial arts, and his instructor twists his arm. It then goes on about how he didn't make him fall down... he merely gave him the choice between falling down, or getting his arm broken... and this was then related to folding and the decisions we can put our opponents to.
I can't find this thing anywhere... help a dude out.

Pyroxene's superb post has been split from that thread and made sticky in Beginners Circle:

oooh i take credit for its stickiness because i bumped it. go me!!!
actually my question is ... why did it take pretty much two bumps (fortune trying to find it and then me commenting on how good it was a week later) for it to be stickied? it's the most awesomest post (bad grammar helps emphasize things)! glad you finally did it, xianti

I dont know. I was thinking about it and wanted to see it again. I'm glad that others have found it useful... I know I found it very inspiring when I read it the first time.
