GhostDancer Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Some of you recall the martial art Paek-Tu, from Aaron Allston's Strike Force supplement. Practitioners know the following factual material- Paek-Tu Mountain (Paek-Tu San) is a disputed site between Korea and China. Chinese call it Cho Haku Zan. Koreans consider this mountain holy. Paek-Tu is 2,744 meters tall, almost as tall as Japan's Mount Fuji. It is topped by a caldera lake, "Heaven's Pond." There is a Chinese rumor of a dinosaur in the lake, like "Nessie," the Loch Ness monster. Dulzuck is the fruit which is reaped mainly from Paek Tu Mt. region. The scientific name is VACCINIUM ULIGINOSUM LINNAEUS and this breed grows spontaneously in the hilly areas 800 meters above sea level. People in the area surrounding Mt. Paek Tu produce multiple foodstuffs with the blue berry Dulzuck. It is consumed three times daily for health, preferably before meals.

Michael Hopcroft Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Re: Grand Master of Paek-Tu There are also a number of secret camps which are now open to the public. This must be some strange new definition of the word "secret" of which I was previously unaware. The mountain is real and has quite an interesting history. You can find it here.

GhostDancer Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Re: Grand Master of Paek-Tu Thank you, Michael! Great link. Lol, yes, the wikipedia text would have better read..."previously secret camps". Perhaps the secret monastery lies behind the frigid waters of one of the waterfalls?

Michael Hopcroft Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Re: Grand Master of Paek-Tu For some reason every time I try to access Mike's HD files they only load as text onto my computer. Save Link As doesn't seem to help. Any idea why this happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hopcroft Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Re: Grand Master of Paek-Tu One of the problems Firefox has is that it wants to set the text file as the default means of saving hdp and hdc files. Changing the default on the individual file appears to help for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... I never noticed until it was pointed out. I'll work on it over the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
