one more law: I forbid anybody to reply to my last post. It was just a note, and I don't care what you think anyway, and don't want to throw off the thread.

And to get back to this, the dude's got great touch, what do you estimate his USATT rating to be? I am thinking 24-2500?

LOL Your rant makes so little sense even you know it's not worth a reply, don't you?

And yeah, he looks like in the 2400s, not much higher than that. And he won the Israeli championship? Is there no pro TT players in Israel?

wturber, this is not a law, as the governments have monopolized that area. ITTF creates arbitrary, I would say, rules for the game of table tennis. This is not a law and nobody will go to jail or get fined for treating rubber with stuff. People have developed a fetish to those rules and call them law. Here is a new law, I am writing it right now:

You may take the issue up with the ITTF if you like, but the title of the document is "The Laws of Table Tennis." Given that you were discussing table tennis rules, I took your statements in that context.

You may want to consult a few dictionaries as well as to the various meaning of the word, "law."

Who knows? He might be blocking with 1.5 sponge for all we know. I'm assuming he's using no sponge, due to the style of blocking he's using.

IMHO, it is the best (and shortest) crash course into junk rubber theory.
